Ubiquitous computing for security enhancement of vehicles

This paper shows how ubiquitous computing can be applied to intensify the security system of vehicles. Some ubiquitous elements are being discuss which include communication technologies such as Bluetooth, Infrared, Wi-Fi and UWB, automatic Identification and data capture (AIDC) such as RFID, virtual barcodes, biometric, smart cards and OCR, authentication methods such as passwords, one time passwords etc and ubiquitous system devices such as tabs, pads and boards. The key features which affect the decision for choosing the best communication method and technology are also discussed.
