Abstract

The security and privacy issues concerning handheld and wearable wireless (HWW) devices are discussed. The advertising of services and the cooperation among HWW devices requires a careful analysis of both technological and nontechnological issues. A HWW device must resort to some sort of intelligent, context-aware agent that should prune the services deemed worthless to a particular user. It is observed that the issues regarding user privacy are more complex and pervasive and require new solutions and further investigation.
