dc.description.abstract | Corporations collect more data about their users than ever. They leave no room for
negotiation in their Terms of Service . GDPR, a new EU regulation concerning data
ownership, amends this somewhat, but the users are still left with very little control
of the data they are generating.
The purpose of this thesis was to create design requirements, identify relevant
technologies for and implement a data marketplace giving the users control of their
data.
The requirements had basis in protecting personal information as defined in
GDPR, avoiding techniques which Big Data enables to infer new information about
users, and upholding Szabo s principles of smart contracts. They were designed to
give more control to the users, and the ability to negotiate their preferred Terms of
Service .
The most prominent identified technologies were IPFS, Ethereum, Matrix and
Raspeberry Pi. A custom negotiation protocol as well as custom Multi-Agent Sys-
tems (MAS) scripts were created to enable agents representing users of the data mar-
ketplace.
The design requirements were found to be adequate, although with room for
improvement. The identified technologies proved highly suitable, while the custom
MAS scripts and the negotiation protocol met some of the design requirements, but
not all. The implementation was found to be a good foundation for a future data
marketplace.
The technology of today was deemed mostly ready to create a data marketplace,
though with some challenges left. Proposals for future work regarding both de-
sign requirements and implementation were provided, encouraging further devel-
opment. | en |
