Could Pervasive Computing Influence Democracy?

چکیده
L ike many people in the US, I have become much more active politically in recent months. At the same time, I have observed many people across the political spectrum who feel like their voices are not being heard, which seems to be a concern shared beyond the US borders, in Europe and perhaps other countries as well. Given this backdrop, I have found myself wondering how pervasive computing could help address this problem.

A context-sensitive dynamic role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Resources and services are accessible in pervasive computing environments from anywhere and at any time. Also, due to ever-changing nature of such environments, the identity of users is unknown. However, users must be able to access the required resources based on their contexts. These and other similar complexities necessitate dynamic and context-aware access control models for such environmen...
متن کاملA semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...

This study shows that in a democracy with pervasive patronage politics, political competition can undermine the strengthening of regulations due to heightened incentives to influence regulators.

M any countries recognize privacy as a right and have attempted to codify it in law. The first known piece of privacy legislation was England's 1361 Justices of the Peace Act, which legislated for the arrest of eaves-droppers and stalkers. The Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution proclaims citizens' right to privacy , and in 1890 US Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis stated that " the righ...
متن کاملp-Democracy a Pervasive Majority Rule
Today, group decision making in our democratic society uses the non-ranked method. What we need is an improved method that allows decision makers to indicate not only their chosen alternative, but also their order of preference by which all alternatives will be placed. We classify this as a particular Social Choice Function, where choice is a group decision-making methodology in an ideal democr...
