Smart devices, smart grids, and Internet of Things (IoT) are changing our life style. With the ever increasing popularity of mobile devices interconnected via wireless networks, crowdsourcing has emerged as is a new computing paradigm, which uses collective intelligence to accomplish computing tasks. In this talk, we discuss opportunities and challenges in crowdsourcing, smart device authentication, and vehicle to grid communications.

For crowdsourcing, we will discuss the computing paradigm, truthful incentive mechanisms, Sybil attacks to popular incentive mechanisms, and counter-measures. For smart device authentication, we will discuss opportunities for fingerprint based authentication mechanisms. For vehicle to grid communications, we will discuss the importance of anonymous communications, attacks to an existing system, and a revocable anonymity based solution.
