Most people do not realise that they are already using smartcards – in their mobile phones. These chips have 8k-32k memory and are capable of doing much more than making phonecalls and storing phone numbers. This presentation leads the audience through a brief history of smartcards and recent deployments. In Australia, there have been a few – Telstra phonecards, Mondex ecash pilots, Visacash pilots at the Gold Coast, ANZ Visa First and Sydney Mass Transit (held up in litigation currently). Throughout the world a number of large implementations have taken place and their is a discussion on their success or otherwise. Ecommerce is a big driver through secure authentication both at B2C and B2B levels. Recent trends are towards multiple applications on the card and business drivers vary based on region. for example, North Asia drivers are massive credit card fraudulent transaction, ID requirements. Why is the technology not yet in use widely - lot of discussion anticipated on this subject. What are the issues for educators and research scholars ? Is this a technology looking for a problem?
