An Analysis of Social Guarantees for Context Based Applications

The biometric identification in context based applications is a promising research area but several legal aspect should be taken into account to develop context applications following legal assumptions as privacy, human rights, etc.. In this work, we present a guide of social guarantees to be developed in the context system for private relations (private user and private services) as for public relations (private/public users and public services). The proposal of this paper is center in a set of goals that should be accomplished by context applications to guarantee the privacy and the human rights.
