Abstract

As mobile computing devices becomes pervasive, more and more civilians deposit precious information in mobile phones than desk top PCs especially for Global Logistics Management operators, who heavily depend on Global Position System in order to effectively and efficiently fulfill just-in-time delivery. In this paper, an embedded Global Position System smart phone was applied to travel along the roads trying to disclose the associate digital evidences concerning the locations that the current user had actually been or wish to go via data mining technology. From digital forensics point of view, digital evidences essentially play a critical and decisive role in some cybercriminal or cyber terrorism cases although the diversities of mobile phones and the corresponding operating systems. The paper provides the generic guides and methodologies for the law enforcement agencies or the digital forensics specialists to ponder when they deal with the similar cases.
