“…Additionally, existing applications can not be immediately integrated into the system unless additional modifications are made in order to provide the required interface. Finally, it can be said that the platform lacks serious management and integration routines required for largescale adoption, such as flexible and unique data addressing and interaction between gadgets [10,11].…”

The current Web offers a very large number of solutiofns and services, ranging from social networking and content delivery services to business applications and management systems. However, in a general case the solutions provided are largely disintegrated, with each product operating in it's own environment. Additionally, many of the products are unknown to the end user and finding the most suitable application is commonly a non-trivial task. The current project is an effort to provide a ubiquitous interface for Web application integration. The suggested approach allows for dynamic identification of the applications most suitable for a given task and access to their data using a unified interface in the REST architectural style. A novel algorithm for identification of the most appropriate data source is introduced within the study. Evaluation of the overall system and the obtained results is provided.

“…One of the best known examples is based on the Merkle hash tree [6]. Recently, ADT-based approaches to designing a credential system that allows users to selectively disclose their attributes have been made in [7], [8], and they are based on skip lists [9], [10]. A skip list is a data structure that allows the effective search and update of elements within a set.…”

Abstract-As the use of personal information in social network sites seems manifold, including the representation of an individual's digital persona (or social role) and identification, so does the abuse or misuse of the information. The issue of privacy is critically important in this context. In this paper we present a novel framework for enabling user-controlled sharing of sensitive personal information for better privacy protection in current online social networks. Specifically, the framework called U-Control is proposed to facilitate digital persona and privacy management (DPPM) in a user-centric way that it can satisfy diverse privacy requirements and specification, and social network environments. We discuss the design of a security system based on the proposed framework. Finally we discuss a proof-of-concept implementation, along with performance evaluation.

“…We proposed an authenticated dictionary (ADT)-based approach to designing a credential system that allows users to selectively disclose their attributes [14], [15], and our approach is based on skip lists. A skip list is a data structure that allows the effective search and update of elements within a set.…”

“…Our extension of OpenSocial mainly concerns the support of an ADT-based credential system to allow users selectively share their attributes among OpenSocial-based SN sites as well as gadgets running on top of them. Though our initial design for an OpenSocial extension was proposed in [14], it was limited in a sense that the design of a credential issuing component was not addressed and the design of a data structure was inefficient. The current design of our extension approach addresses both of these issues to seamlessly support the issuance and usage of an ADT-based credential in OpenSocial-based SN systems.…”

“…As shown in Figure 2, our extension class, DataRequestEx, subclasses DataRequest, inheriting all the functionality available in the original type and changing solely the relevant function that calls the appropriate entity to handle the request made by the social gadget. Note that our extended object is slightly different from ones proposed in [14]. In addition, our extension of OpenSocial should address the ability to issue credentials.…”

User privacy is a challenging issue that must be addressed urgently in current online social networking (SN) sites. One of the fundamental problems associated with the issue is the lack of support of a user-centric approach to managing and sharing user profile information in current SN systems. In this paper we present a user-centric approach based on a credential system to enabling a user-controlled attribute (persona) sharing in online SN sites. Specifically we extend a Google-initiated open source project called OpenSocial, which provides a framework to support user attribute sharing between gadgets and online SN sites, in order to allow users to selectively share their attributes among online SN sites. This paper details the design and implementation of our extension.
