Abstract

SummaryIn recent times, many location‐based service providers (LBSPs) choose to outsource data query services to third‐party cloud service providers (CSPs). This allows users to easily search for points of interests (POIs), such as restaurants and parking lots in their vicinity, using their mobile devices and in‐vehicle infotainment units. Skyline query is one potential technique to be deployed for road networks. However, the untrusted CSPs may forge or omit query results, intentionally or not. Therefore, in this article, we posit that by observing the unique properties of skyline query results in road networks, we can bind each POI with four nearby POIs with special properties using signature chain technology. Our proposed approach not only provides users with skyline query result authentication ability over the road network, but also have low communication overhead. Specifically, the overhead analysis and experimental results show that our proposed approach decreases the communication overhead.
