Security and Privacy Challenges in On-The-Fly Computing

Abstract

On-The-Fly (OTF) Computing constitutes an approach towards highly dynamic and individualized software markets. Based on service-oriented computing, OTF Computing is about realizing global markets of services that can be flexibly combined. We report on our current research activities, the security and privacy implications thereof, and our approaches to tackle the challenges. Furthermore, we discuss how the security and privacy challenges are addressed in research projects similar to OTF Computing.
