Their communication and especially collaboration promises useful services to be provided to end users. However, the same communication channels pose important privacy concerns to be raised. It is not clear which information will be shared with whom, for which intents, under which conditions. Existing approaches to privacy advocate policies to be in place to regulate privacy. However, the scale and heterogeneity of the IoT entities make it infeasible to maintain policies among each and every entity in the system. Conversely, it is best if each entity can reason on the privacy using norms and context autonomously. Accordingly, this paper proposes an approach where each entity finds out which contexts it is in based on information it gathers from other entities in the system. The proposed approach uses argumentation to enable IoT entities to reason about their context and decide to reveal information based on it. We demonstrate the applicability of the approach over an IoT scenario.","doi":"10.24963/ijcai.2017/660","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2017/660","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2017/0660.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2017/660.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2017/bibtex/660","volume":{"slug":"2017","title":"Proceedings of the Twenty-Sixth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 2017","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2017/","year":2017,"location":"Melbourne, Australia","dates":"19-25 August 2017","editors":"Carles Sierra","isbn":"978-0-9992411-0-3","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence Organization","doi_prefix":"10.24963/ijcai.2017"},"section":"AI and autonomy track","track":"AI and autonomy track","number":660,"pages":{"first":4738,"last":4744},"keywords":["Technical: Privacy","Social: Security & Privacy"],"videos":[],"references":[{"position":1,"raw":"[Abowd et al., 1999] Gregory D Abowd, Anind K Dey, Pe- ter J Brown, Nigel Davies, Mark Smith, and Pete Steggles.
