Publications

We will be publishing reports about our research and the development of the DECODE technology throughout the project.

Friday 12th April 2019

This report describes the work undertaken in the DECODE pilots in Amsterdam through January, 2019. The DECODE pilots are usable systems that promote the project’s core values.

Data Driven disruptive commons-based models

Wednesday 27th February 2019

This document is a project deliverable for DECODE on data driven disruptive commons-based models.

Design and implementation interface for Smart Rules

Wednesday 20th February 2019

This document is a project deliverable for DECODE. It aims to explain through the Smart Rules interface, the possibility to clearly perceive who is doing what with our data and take clear decisions when it matters, looking at privacy in context and the implementation of the DECODE platform through user testing.

Decentralised models for data and identity management: Blockchain and ABC MVPs

Wednesday 20th February 2019

This document is a project deliverable for DECODE. It aims at explaining decentralised identity mangement and access control.

Control and entitlement system for sensor data owners

Wednesday 20th February 2019

This document is a project deliverable for DECODE. It aims at to cover the design of the components built by Thingful which are to be delivered to SmartCitizen to be operated within the IoT pilot.

Deployments of pilots in Barcelona

Tuesday 27th November 2018

This document shows how DECODE pilots are a fundamental part of the project as they must serve to engage large number of citizens and local communities to demonstrate the use of the different privacy-enhancing, decentralized and rights-preserving digital tools DECODE is developing.

Data-driven Disruptive Commons-based models

Tuesday 27th November 2018

This document is a project deliverable for DECODE. It aims at characterizing alternative production models based on two schools of thought: the logic of the knowledge commons, and platform cooperatives.

Prototype data visualization tool

Sunday 30th September 2018

In the current document we present the advancements in the development of the BarcelonaNow dashboard, and the design and specification of the planned upgrades.

Technopolitical Democratization and Digital Commoning: the Case of the Digital Democracy and Data Commons (DDDC) pilot

Sunday 30th September 2018

This document presents the theoretical background, general objectives, elements, and shape of the Digital Democracy and Data Commons pilot to be carried on in Barcelona

Licensing of digital commons including personal data

Sunday 30th September 2018

This document provides a review of the licensing options for digital data commons, including for the case that data commons include personal data.

Reclaiming the Smart City: Personal data, trust and the new commons

Tuesday 3rd July 2018

This report is about why and how city governments are taking a more responsible approach to the use of citizens’ data.

Hardware prototype and reference platform running the DECODE OS

Tuesday 3rd July 2018

This document is part of the work done by Arduino in collaboration with the other technical partners in the DECODE project in the search for an optimal hardware platform ready to perform well enough to run the software created by the other partners in the consortium.

Initial definition of Smart Rules and Taxonomy

Tuesday 3rd July 2018

To facilitate transparency, multiple implementations, wide adoption and standardisation, DECODE develops a smart rule language and execution engine. Here we present an initial set of data subject attributes and controller entitlements governing access to them common to all pilots.

Design and implementation interface for smart rules

Tuesday 3rd July 2018

This Deliverable is an intermediary outcome of T1.4 “Graphical interfaces design for DECODE OS and for smart contracts”.

City OS connection

Tuesday 3rd July 2018

Barcelona has issued a new Data Directive that mandates data sovereignty, privacy and security by design and data ethics, as a set of ethical standards for the digital transformation. In this Deliverable, we describe how this vision is realised within the DECODE project, by integrating DECODE with the core data architecture of the City of Barcelona.

Integration and deployment of the DECODE OS and HUB platform

Tuesday 3rd July 2018

This brief technical deliverable illustrates aspects related to the integration and deployment of the DECODE OS (D4.4) with the DECODE HUB hardware platform according to benchmarks (D4.5) and the indicated reference prototype (D4.8).
