Smart-M3 security: Authentification anc authorization mechanisms

Smart spaces are dynamic environments for sharing device information. Key challenges for smart spaces include security and interoperability between heterogeneous devices. Thus, smart spaces and its environments must provide feasible solutions for authentication, access control and privacy. Open source Smart Space platform Smart-M3 is actively developed but does not have a sufficient security mechanism yet. The main focus of this paper is analysis and development of security mechanisms for Smart-M3 platform.
