Leveraging real-world data while protecting privacy Framework using personal agent system for distributed data

We propose a real-world data exchange framework based on the concept of data ownership. The most important issues with these data are the protection of user privacy and preserve the value of the information derived from the data to consumers. This framework enables the protection of privacy and enables maximum leverage of real-world data belonging to each person at the same time. In our framework, real-world data and its information value are managed and protected by the personal agent system that works on each persons authority. On that basis, the information value can be exchanged and leveraged using a market mechanism that distributes transactions of queries and answers concerning the data. We also present the basic design of the framework and its personal agent system that works on multiple user devices.
