1 ORBIT: Multimedia Messaging & location- based services Henning Schulzrinne Columbia University

2 Overview Disconnected ad-hoc networks multi-modal networking 7DS prototype Location-based services location determination service creation privacy policies

3 Wireless Network: filling the infrastructure-ad hoc gap Wireless networks: Ubiquitous, fast, cheap: pick any two… Currently, varies from 0.1c to $4/MB Research has primarily explored: one-hop infrastructure extension (2G, 3G, 802.11) multi-hop connected ad-hoc networks (mesh networks) But: 2G/3G bandwidth will remain low and precious hot spots not ubiquitous ad hoc networks don’t scale brittle if spanning large areas Our proposal: use mobile nodes to carry data to and from infrastructure networks

4 Applications Tourism: get information about sights, travel, public transport schedules,.. upload picture postcards and video recordings Transportation: users in buses and trains leverage data capability Emergencies: propagate “I’m alive” and rescue information Mobile sensors: sensors spread too far to communicate directly with each other large sensor data objects

5 7DS – a framework for intermittently connected networks Two directions for data: Internet  mobile nodes mobile nodes  Internet Each in multiple hops but not routed highlow high7DS802.11 hotspots lowsatellite SMS? voice (2G, 2.5G) bandwidth (peak) delay

6 Realization

7 Average Delay (s) vs Dataholders (%) Peer-to-Peer schemes medium transmission power high transmission power

8 Current status: prototype Initial Java implementation search not just by URL, but by content  greater likelihood of finding appropriate material (“news”) Working on PDA implementations Also, considering Linux embedded systems low-power, self-contained

9 Combining cellular and 7DS networks Proposed research use ubiquitous, low-speed networks for control some only one-way (satellite, XM, Spot) short-range, multi-hop for bulk data transmission Cellular reselling pay once for bandwidth, use many times Inverse multiplexing for high-priority content Content location find nearest hotspot Cache cleaning indicate popular content for proactive querying remove stale content in mobile  Internet case Incentive management reputation management credit for delivering data

10 Location-based services Finding services based on location physical services (stores, restaurants, ATMs, …) electronic services (media I/O, printer, display, …) not covered here Using location to improve (network) services communication incoming communications changes based on where I am configuration devices in room adapt to their current users awareness others are (selectively) made aware of my location security proximity grants temporary access Privacy rules for access to context data

11 Location-based services & SIP We’re using SIP (and SIMPLE) as generic protocols for effecting change (“actuators”) send MESSAGE to devices distributing event information (“sensors”) Advantages: people and rooms identified by URIs sip:hgs@cs.columbia.edu sip:cepsr815@cs.columbia.edu cross-domain, with extensive security mechanisms domains don’t need to trust each other scalable to global system many other systems are mostly local

12 Location-based services Presence-based approach: UA publishes location to presence agent (PA) becomes part of general user context other users (human and machines) subscribe to context call handling and direction location-based anycast (“anybody in the room”) location-based service directory Languages for location-based services building on experience with our XML-based service creation languages CPL for user-location services LESS for end system services

13 Location information geospatial longitude, latitude, altitude civil time zone, country, city, street, room, … categorical type of location properties of location privacy (“no audio privacy”) suitability for different communication media

14 Determining location GPS may not be practical (cost, power, topology) Add location beacons extrapolate based on distance moved odometer, pedometer, time-since-sighting idea: meet other mobile location beacons estimate location based on third-party information

15 PA device controller SUBSCRIBE to each room SUBSCRIBE to configuration for users currently in rooms 1.discover room URI 2.REGISTER as contact for room URI tftp HTTP Example: user-adaptive device configuration SLP “all devices that are in the building” RFC 3082? 802.11 signal strength  location REGISTER To: 815cepsr Contact: alice@cs SIP room 815

16 Architectures for (geo) information access Claim: all using protocols fall into one of these categories Presence or event notification “circuit-switched” model subscription: binary decision Messaging email, SMS basically, event notification without (explicit) subscription but often out-of-band subscription (mailing list) Request-response RPC, HTTP; also DNS, LDAP typically, already has session-level access control (if any at all) Presence is superset of other two

17 Presence/Event notification Three places for policy enforcement subscription  binary only policy, no geo information subscriber may provide filter  could reject based on filter (“sorry, you only get county-level information”)  greatly improves scaling since no event-level checks needed notification  content filtering, suppression only policy, no geo information third-party notification e.g., event aggregator can convert models: gateway subscribes to event source, distributes by email both policy and geo data

18 Presence model subscription policy event generator policy subscriber filter rate limiter change to previous notification? for each watcher subscriber (watcher) SUBSCRIBE NOTIFY

19 Policy rules There is no sharp geospatial boundary Presence contains other sensitive data (activity, icons, …) and others may be added Example: future extensions to personal medical data “only my cardiologist may see heart rate, but notify everybody in building if heart rate = 0” Thus, generic policies are necessary

20 Processing models Sequential model: for each subscriber, apply rules to new data doesn’t scale well to large groups Relational database model: re-use indexing and other query optimizations well-defined query and matching semantics e.g., mySQL and PostGres have geo extensions At time of subscription: SELECT address FROM policies WHERE person=$subscriber (AND now() between(starttime,endtime) OR starttime is null) AND (a3=$a3 or a3 is null) …

21 Conclusion 7DS as extension of infrastructure and ad- hoc networks Combine benefits of low bit-rate, but ubiquitous and high bit-rate, but sparse networks Location-based services as core wireless service from location determination to location management and privacy
