Deliverables

Work Package 2: Requirements

D2.1 Taxonomy (July 2008)
The objective of the PICOS project in general is to advance state of the art technologies that provide privacy-enhanced identity and trust management features within complex communitysupporting services that are, in turn, built on Next Generation Networks and delivered by multiple communication service providers. Therefore, this deliverable serves as an inventory of common terminology on trust, privacy and identity related aspects of identity management. The terminology included in this deliverable has been established within the PICOS Consortium and attempts to consolidate the different perspectives in a multidisciplinary report. The terms included in this deliverable will be considered as working definitions reflecting the project’s focus, which aim at providing a common understanding among the project partners of the main terms that are used within the project.

D2.2 Categorisation of Communities (July 2008)
PICOS aims at advancing the state-of-the-art in technologies that provide privacy-enhanced identity and trust management features for both online and mobile community-supporting services. To do so a detailed understanding of different targeted communities, their characteristics and requirements is needed. Within this deliverable we analyse and summarize relevant existing work. We provide an overview of existing classification approaches, and present a tailored approach we developed based on existing work and empirical analysis to meet our specific goals. The results of this work will help to focus the work in the following steps of the project, especially the requirements definition.

D2.3  Contextual Framework (November 2008)
With European citizens increasingly demanding community-related services and subscribing to a greater number of communities (i.e. social groups of entities sharing an environment, normally with shared interests), inter-disciplinary solutions for identity, trust and privacy management will be increasingly seen as a cornerstone for the success of online communities, especially in mobile-based usage contexts. PICOS specifically addresses these types of contexts by dealing with a number of privacy, identity and trust-related requirements of online mobile communities. The present deliverable builds a framework that in the first place integrates the legal, socio-economic, application-specific and technical views and rules on trust, data protection, privacy and identity management in communities. It is aimed to be generic enough to include universal requirements for community applications, which are reported in detail in deliverable D2.4 "Requirements". As the name of the deliverable indicates, this framework will also be "contextualized". For this reason we have identified the problem space by using three scenarios in the beginning of the document. These scenarios belong to three different categories of communities, i.e. Anglers, Taxi Drivers and Online Gamers, and clearly illustrate the problems that exist today in such communities.

D2.4 Requirements (November 2008)
PICOS will develop and build a state-of-the-art platform for providing the trust, privacy and identity management aspects of community services and applications on the Internet and especially in mobile communication networks. For this purpose, the elaboration of a set of interdisciplinary requirements for trustworthy and privacy-friendly identity management solutions is required. This deliverable identifies and reports these requirements while going along with the PICOS terminology (D2.1), the categorisa-tion of communities (D2.2) and the presentation of the contextual framework of the project PICOS (D2.3).
The broad spectrum of online and mobile communities that exist in the real world and utilise online and mobile services to support their activities, their different use cases and parties interacting with them, is considered within this document. Thus, it represents rather a catalogue of summarised needs and re-quirements providing the basis for the following development work packages than a detailed specifica-tion that can be mapped directly to an architecture or platform design, respectively.

Work Package 4: Platform Architecture and Design

D4.1 Platform Architecture and Design v1 (March 2009)
Deliverable D4.1 presents the first version of the PICOS architecture. It describes almost fifty components that will go to make up a PICOS community, and set the context for two Work Packages that will directly benefit from this work, namely WP5 and WP6. While the architecture is important, the process that has been used to define the architecture is equally significant. Starting with real-world requirements, derived form earlier PICOS deliverables, the Architecture Team produced detailed lists of principles, features, system requirements, trust models and interdependencies, resulting in a comprehensive and justifiable design. Consideration is also given to the social and legal aspects of using and operating a PICOS community. In recognising that it is rarely possible to create a community from scratch, the architecture has been designed to be compatible with existing community implementation, and to allow a gentle adoption path for those new to privacy respecting communities.

Work Package 5: Platform Prototype Development

D5.1 Platform Prototype 1 (October 2009)
This document presents a high-level description of how the PICOS architecture components have been implemented in the first PICOS prototype. The document takes the inputs from the WP4 PICOS architecture document, and extracts the components that were most relevant for the PICOS use cases. For each of those components, this document describes how the component has been implemented. In some cases, the components have been implemented as functions of the PICOS platform prototype; in other cases, the components have been implemented as a combination of client-side application functionality (WP6) and server-side platform functionality (WP5).

D5.2a Platform Prototype 2 (May 2010) [not yet approved]
This document presents a high-level description of how the PICOS architecture components have been implemented in the second PICOS prototype.
This version 1.2 of the deliverable brings inclusion of a few enhancements that have been added to the PICOS platform prototype in the perspective of the Anglers Field trial. These
enhancements, which are highlighted in the document, have been identified based on the
outcomes of the 2 Lab trials conducted with the anglers community. The purpose of the platform enhancements is to support the changes developed in the angling community application (WP6) in order to deliver a better user experience, hence improving the quality of evaluation of the PICOS concepts during the anglers field trial.

Work Package 6: Communities Prototype Construction

D6.1 Community Application Prototype 1 (December 2009)
This deliverable describes the first application prototype for the Angling community that is based on top of the PICOS platform developed in WP5.

D6.2a First Community Application Prototype v2 (April 2010) [not yet approved]
Deliverable D6.2a presents the second version of the PICOS community application prototype for the angling community (angler v2). It describes the developments and improvements which were applied to the mobile application, based on the feedback from the R2 investigation report (WP4) and community user trials (WP7) and taking into account the results from assurance work (WP3). It also provides the description of the web frontend which has been developed as a mirror of the mobile applications in order to support the usage of the more complex functionalities in a web browser environment. 

Work Package 7: Community Prototype User Trials

D7.1a Trial design document (December 2009)
In D7.1a a comprehensive trial and assessment plan for the first evaluation phase is described. The plan includes information regarding testing scenarios, methods, metrics,selection of users, and timing. Additionally this deliverable includes a summary of the set up of the PICOS Angling Community Prototype field trials & lab test and legal analysis of the collection and processing of personal data. As PICOS’ mission is to protect privacy and enable trust end security, the legal analysis also includes a privacy policy for the project, a user consent form that was signed by the users for the trials in Vienna and in Kiel and a country report.

D7.2a First Community Prototype: Lab and Field Test Report (February 2010) 
In this deliverable the output of the trial report of the first set of community prototype lab and field tests is presented. The test report summarizes the results of the community application prototype user trials and documents them completely. The report contains quantitative and qualitative data analysing usability in general and focussed on PICOS privacy enhanced technology. Therefore this deliverable provides important information for improvements of the second phase of the prototype development. All in all 24 users in Vienna and Kiel have been observed and interviewed to gather the results. The results are directing the improvements which have to be developed before bringing the prototype into a real-world context during the user trials. Moreover, the goal is to build a solid basis for the evaluation to be performed by work package 8.

D7.2b First Community Prototype: Field Trial Report (August 2010) [not yet approved]
The deliverable presents the results of the field trial of the first community prototype, the angling community. It depicts an analysis of quantitative and qualitative data inspecting usability in general and focuses on PICOS privacy enhanced technology in real world usage. Therefore this deliverable provides important information for improvements of the gaming prototype development.
The results are directing the improvements, which have to be concerned for the development of the prototype for the gaming community. Moreover, the goal is to build a solid basis for the evaluation to be performed by work package 8.

Work Package 8: Evaluation

D8.1 Legal, economic and technical evaluation of the first platform and community prototype (April 2010) [not yet approved]
In this deliverable a multi-disciplinary evaluation of the work performed during the first cycle of the PICOS project is conducted. The PICOS Platform Design and Architecture v1, the PICOS Platform Prototype v1 and the PICOS Angling Community Application Prototype v1 are evaluated from a legal, economic, technical and usability point of view. This multi-disciplinary evaluation focuses on the privacy and trust related elements of the PICOS project. Based on their findings, the evaluators further propose recommendations that will be taken into account for the design and the development of the PICOS platform and application prototypes during the second cycle.

Work Package 9: Dissemination and Exploitation
