Location-based services or LBS refer to value-added service by processing information utilizing mobile user location. With the rapidly increasing wireless Internet subscribers and world LBS market, the various location based applications are introduced such as buddy finder, proximity and security services. As the killer application of the wireless Internet, the LBS have reconsidered technology about location determination technology, LBS middleware server for various application, and diverse contents processing technology. However, there are fears that this new wealth of personal location information will lead to new security risks, to the invasion of the privacy of people and organizations. This paper describes a novel security approach on open LBS service to validate certificate based on current LBS platform environment using XKMS (XML Key Management Specification) and SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language), XACML (extensible Access Control Markup Language) in XML security mechanism.

When SOAP message in Web Services has sensitive and important data, it is necessary to protect the message from XML rewriting attacks. These attacks create a foundation for typical faults in SOAP message and make it vulnerable to use in Web Service environment. Currently, Web Services middleware offers limited functions to detect these faults and possibly fix them. In this paper, we propose a Security Description Assistance which identifies and fixes typical faults in SOAP messages. Our system adapts simulation-based approach, which allows system to self-optimize its performance in different conditions and thus improve the reliability of Web Services.

High temperature vacuum furnaces or high standard electric furnaces demand high technology level and high production cost. Therefore, an iterative design process and the optimization approach under integrated computing environment are required to reduce the development risk. Moreover, it also required to develop an integrated design software that can manage the centralized database system between factory and design department, and the automated furnace design and analysis. The developed software is dedicated to the development of the vacuum (electric) furnaces. Based on the distribute middleware system, the GUI module, the CAD module, the thermal analysis module and the optimization module are integrated. For the DBMS, Microsoft Access is employed, the GUI is developed using Visual Basic language, and AutoCAD is utilized for the configuration design. By investigating the analysis code interface, the analysis and optimization process, and the data communication method, the overall system architecture, the method to integrate the optimizer and ana lysis codes, and the method to manage the data flow are proposed and verified through the optimal furnace design.

Recently, amount of the data such as sequences is being increased rapidly due to deploying computational technique and advance of experiment tools in the biological areas. In bioinformatics, it is very significant to extract the knowledge from such huge biological data. Sequence comparisons are most frequently used to predict the function of the genes or proteins. However it takes so much time to process the persistently increasing data In this paper, we propose hardware-based grid, CGRID(Chungbuk National University GRID), to improve performance and complement existing middleware-only approach and apply it in the sequence comparison. Hardware-based approach is easy to construct, maintain, and manage the grid as not requiring the software installation individually for every node. We reduce orthologous database construction time from 33 weeks to just a week. Furthermore, CGRID guarantees that the performance increases proportionally as adding the nodes.

This paper deals with reconfigurable secured mobile systems where the reconfigurability has the potential of providing a required adaptability to change the system requirements. The reconfiguration scenario is presented as a run-time automatic operation which allows security mechanisms and the addition-removal-update of software tasks. In particular, there is a definite requirement for filtering and intrusion detection mechanisms that will use fewer resources and also that will improve the security on the secured mobile devices. Filtering methods are used to control incoming traffic and messages, whereas, detection methods are used to detect malware events. Nevertheless, when different reconfiguration scenarios are applied at run-time, new security threats will be emerged against those systems which need to support multiple security objectives: Confidentiality, integrity and availability. We propose in this paper a new approach that efficiently detects threats after reconfigurable scenarios and which is based on filtering and intrusion detection methods. The paper's contribution is applied to Android where the evaluation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed middleware in order to detect the malicious events on reconfigurable secured mobile systems and the feasibility of running and executing such a system with the proposed solutions.

The Internet of things (IoT) needs to be an event-driven approach for efficient related time response and processing. The growth of mobile devices in Internet of Things (IoT) leads to a number of intelligent buildings related IoT applications. For instance, home automation controlling system uses client system such web apps on smartphone or web service to access the home server by sending control commands. The gateway based RESTful technology responsible for handling clients'requests attests an internet latency in case a large number of clients' requests submit toward the gateway increases. In this paper, we propose the design tasks of the IoT gateway for handling concurrency events. The gateway based event-driven architecture is designed for building IoT gateway using node.js on one side and communication protocol based message-oriented middleware known as XMPP to handle communications of intelligent building control devices connected to the gateway through a centralized hub.

Nowadays, to realize ubiquitous computing environment, many research activities have been going on within various kinds of research domains including automatic identification, sensor network, home network, telematics and so on. Especially, RFID middle-ware that supports the aggregation of RFID tag data, control and management, and the integration with legacy systems has recently gained a lot of attention. Meanwhile, EPCglobal defined an ALE(Application Level Events) standard specification, which exists between RFID readers and applications, and substitutes the previous systems called Savant. In the specification internal structures and implementation technologies of ALE are not mentioned and only external interfaces are defined. This approach easies the verification of standard compliance and inter-operability of the layer. In this paper, we present the design of ALE-compliant RFID middle-ware systems that process RFID tag data efficiently.

Many personalized Services that provide users with adaptive information according to users' requirements and preferences have been researched and developed. However, existing approaches are difficult to share a user's information among heterogeneous services because these approaches manage users' preferences in a single system. In this paper, we propose a user preference sharing model based on the Semantic Web as a solution to resolve the problem. Our model enables user preferences to be described and shared over service-specific ontologies which are affected by the feature of each service. Our model is analyzed and evaluated with an implementation of the middleware that supports our model. Our approach has the advantage of providing more efficient personalized services than existing approaches because it can describe users' preferences centering around each service and share these information among heterogeneous personalized services.
