#

This senior year project investigated techniques for preserving the location privacy of mobile users — a problem that has grown significantly with the proliferation of location-aware applications and services.

The research reviewed and evaluated existing privacy-preserving mechanisms including k-anonymity, differential privacy approaches applied to location data, and obfuscation strategies, with a focus on their practical trade-offs between privacy guarantees and service utility.
