Mobile agents are autonomous and dynamic entities that can migrate among various nodes in the network. Java's Jini framework facilitates mobile agent system development, providing hey features for distributed network programming. However, due to the security weakness, Jinil.0 service has a fundamental limitation on developing mobile agent systems which support secure remote communications. In this paper, we describe a Jini2.0-based secure mobile agent system named SecureJMoblet. On the top of Jini2.0, the system provides basic functionalities of a mobile agent system such as creation, transfer and control. In addition, with the SeureJS developed for secure JavaSpace service, SecureJMoblet supports a secure object repository and a reliable communication among mobile agents.

As the wireless communication technology advances rapidly, a personalization technology can be incorporated with the mobile Internet environment, which is based on location-based services to support more accurate personalized services. A location-based personalized recommender system is one of the essential technologies of the location-based application services, and is also a crucial technology for the ubiquitous environment. In this paper we propose a framework of a location-based personalized recommender system for the mobile Internet environment. The proposed system consists of three modules the interface module, the neighbor selection module and the prediction and recommendation module. The proposed system incorporates the concept of the recommendation system in the Electronic Commerce along with that of the mobile devices for possible expansion of services on the mobile devices. Finally a service scenario for entertainment recommendation based on the proposed recommender system is described.

The portable mobile devices with high performance and high speed 5G network activate and explode the demands for ubiquitous information services that remove the limitations of time for the communication and places to request for the information. NN (Nearest Neighbor) search is one of the most important types of queries to be processed efficiently in the information services. Various indexes have been proposed to support efficient NN search in the wireless broadcast system. The indexes adopting Hilbert curve, grid partition or Voronoi diagram enable the clients to search for NN quickly in the wireless broadcast channel. It is necessary that an efficient means to evaluate the performances of various indexes. In this paper, we propose an open framework that can adopt a variety of indexing schemes and evaluate and compare the performances of them. The proposed framework is organized with open and flexible structure that can adopt hybrid indexing schemes extensible to Voronoi diagram as well as simple indexing schemes. With the implemented framework, we demonstrate the efficiency and scalability and flexibility of the proposed framework by evaluating various indexing schemes for NN query.

Rapid evolution of wired and wireless technologies results in various types of embedded systems, and the software to be embedded into those devices now needs the flexibility rather than the fixedness which was well-known property for the embedded software in the past. Mobile agent is one of the useful distributed technologies of reducing network load and latency because of its disconnected operations and high asynchrony. In this paper, a component-based mobile agent framework, called EmHUMAN, is designed and implemented for structural embedding into the devices showing different functions and resource constraints. It consists of 3 layers of components. Based on those components, a structural embedding, considering resource constraints of required functions, amount of storage space, computing power, network bandwidth, ${\ldots} $ etc can be performed. The components in each layer can be extended with addition of new components, removing some components and modifying components. EmHUMAN plays the role of a framework for developing mobile agent based distributed systems. It is also a mobile agent system by itself. EmHUMAN provides several utilities as built-in API's, and thus high effectiveness in programming mobile agents can be achieved.

Recently, we could witness research works on the development of mobile harbor. In line with the implementation of the physical entity for the mobile harbor system, there exists a need for the development of the service management system for the mobile harbor. In this work we propose a framework for the mobile harbor service management system. To that purpose, we first define the principle for the operation of the mobile harbor service management system. Also we develop the mobile harbor service management system by simulation. Finally, we illustrate the implication of the research by experiments.

OSGi(Open Service Gateway Initiative) offers a unique opportunity for pervasive computing as a potential framework for achieving interoperability between various sensors, home appliances, and networked devices. The OSGi framework supports a remote installation of a bundle, which is a unit that installs and deploys services. However, in order for the bundle in execution to migrate, a specific form of bundle such a mobile agent, is needed one which is able to move through a heterogeneous network. This paper proposes a method that can manage bundles like these dynamic agents, in order to ensure the mobility of entities in multiple OSGi framework environments. For our purposes, we have designed the mobile agent management system for managing the lifecycle and mobility of agents in the OSGi framework. The mobile agent management system we are proposing implements a bundle form which can perform in an OSGi framework as well as manage autonomous mobile services. As a result, mobility in a pervasive environment will be supported more efficiently.

In distributed computing paradigm, mobile surrogate systems migrates from on host in a network to another. However, Mobile surrogate system have not gained wide acceptance because of security concerns that have not been suitably addressed yet. In this paper, we propose a security framework based on Grid Proxy Gateway for mobile Grid service. The current Grid Security Infrastructure is extended to mobile computing environments. The surrogate host system designed for mobile Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) users can access the certified host and get his proxy credential to launch remote job submission securely.

Today, with the wide use of mobile devices, the amount of business transactions conducted through such devices is increasing drastically. However, there are several limitations in the area of authentication for mobile use, which requires strong authentication mechanisms to satisfy security and convenience requirements. The proposed model and application system provide a framework to ensure the security and reliability of the flow of biometric information for telebiometric applications using mobile devices. We also specify protocols for each model and implement a mobile telebiometric application to improve security vulnerabilities compared to storage in a microSD match on card (MOC) based on the proposed model. As a consequence of this implementation, we propose substantial guidelines for security countermeasures from both technical and managerial perspectives in order to establish a safe mobile environment for the use of telebiometric systems.

A home network is a residential local area network in which digital home appliances are connected with each other. Applying the mobile agent technology to the home network is expected to provide a new computing model. In particular, mobility and asynchronous ability of mobile agent can be used to reduce network traffic generated for managing home appliances. However, in order to apply the mobile agent concept to the home network, access control for mobile agents is necessary. In the existing home network system, there is one special server, sometimes called home server This server generally has mapping tables to be updated periodically, which describes access control lists between users' authorities and corresponding devices. In this paper, we propose a role-based access control framework with mobile agents in home networks. This framework, called Secure KAgent framework, is designed and implemented based on KAgent system. It has two main characteristics: to control access permissions based on Role-Based Access Control(RBAC) scheme and to safety assign roles to mobile agents by role tickets.
