Workshop on Mobility and Identity in Frankfurt

Mobile communication networks are becoming more and more important for our everyday life. Countless services, such as data services, are offered for our personal use, which aim to improve the quality of our lives by acknowledging our needs, requirements and preferences. The main focus of current mobile identification concepts is to provide simple, easy-to-handle identities in order to technically enable secure communication and to cover billing issues. For the more recent data services, advanced identity concepts are needed. Unlike the static identity already implemented in current mobile networks, dynamic aspects like the user’s position or the temporal context increasingly gain importance for new kinds of mobile applications.

The objective of Workpackage 11: “Mobility and Identity”, is the identification, the description, and the application of the concepts and elements in the fields of mobility and identity.
