Abstract:
Personal information has become one of the most valuable coins on the Internet. Companies gather a massive amount of data to create rich profiles of their users, trying to understand how they interact with the platform and what are their preferences. However, these profiles do not follow any standard and are usually incomplete in the sense that users provide different subsets of information to distinct platforms. Thus, the quality and quantity of the data vary between applications and tends to inconsistency and duplicity. In this context, the Social Linked Data (SOLID) initiative proposes an alternative to separate the user’s information from the platforms which consume it, defining a unique and autonomous source of data. Following this line, this study proposes Pushed SOLID, an architecture that integrates SOLID in the user’s smartphone to store and serve their information from a single entity controlled by the users themselves. In this study, we present an implementation of the Pushed SOLID proposal with the aim of experimentally assessing the technical viability of the solution. Satisfactory performance results have been obtained at battery consumption and response time. Furthermore, users have been interviewed about the proposal, and they find the solution attractive and reliable. This solution can improve the way data are stored on the Internet, empowering users to manage their own information and benefiting third party applications with consistent and update profiles.
