E-health services have provided interoperability between personal health devices in personal area network, based the ISO/IEEE 11073 standard. In the healthcare system, the manager handles most agents concurrently through wireless communication. However, due to the distance limitation and the increased number of agents, it may be difficult to provide continuous connectivity. Recently, body area devices have been equipped with various applicable agents, which can even handle agents on behalf of the manager. A BAD may act as an intermediary device to increase system efficiency and performance. In this study, a device called "proxy", which can be installed as software on BAD devices, is proposed. The data measured by an agent can be sent to the proxy first, and subsequently be sent to the manager again. Agents and the manager are not aware of the proxy existence and work normally without the proxy. Furthermore, a new smart proxy and modified manager are proposed. The smart proxy acts as one agent handling measurement data from several agents, which can transmit a significant amount of data at once. The proxy and smart proxy maintain compatibility with existing devices that conform to the 20601 standard. The proposed schemes are verified and the complexities of devices are analyzed. The analysis shows no significant difference among the proxy, smart proxy, and manager. Simulations exhibit that the proposed schemes can improve the system performance.

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.

Transcoding proxy strategy has been widely used as a means to reduce the delay in retrieving Web pages over wireless mobile data service networks. However, this strategy has the serious drawbacks of being a potential point of failure or a bottleneck of the service. We developed a distributed proxy server system in which multiple proxy servers are installed at geographically dispersed locations and share the workloads among them by serving mobile hosts only within assigned regions. A new handoff message protocol to enable handoffs between proxies as the mobile hosts move between regions is proposed. According to the proxy server handoff protocol, a client agent at the mobile horst requests a proxy server to start handoff processing by which two proxy servers synchronize distilled data belonging to a HTTP session that must be maintained across the handoff. Also, we introduce the architecture of the proxy server and the client agent that handles the proxy server handoff. Finally, we evaluate the proposed system through performance test.

The network-wide performance management is crucial for maintaining the quality of network services, which requires the collection and monitoring the performance data at individual network nodes. Most of the public networks, however, are composed of diverse, heterogeneous network nodes that are managed by various types of proprietary management systems with a conventional operator console and embedded management functions, which makes it difficult to implement the integrated performance management systems. Even though the developments of TMN (Telecommunication Management Network) based management systems are being attempted, the little work has been done in performance management area. In this paper, we propose the performance monitoring architecture for ATM switches using the 0₃ object model and describe how to implement the TMN-based performance prosy agent for ATM switching systems. The proposed performance proxy agent provides the TMN standard performance management interfaces by translating the proprietary performance management functions, which eventually leads to network-wide integrated performance management.

Recently there are many tries and researches for using web agent in education. The agent is a computer program as a common name which takes a role like a proxy or a middle ware for accomplishing the given something on behalf of user. Lately the agent is being used in the various fields. The teaching and learning is the one of those. It is the web agent that support the teaching and learning on the web. It has a concept of the program or the engine is able to do teachers roles on the behalf of him on the web. Not only the web agent is able to do teachers roles on the behalf of him, but also it is a helper that helps learners on the web. The web based teaching and learning environment has the web agent offers the personal and the adaptive information, interface, or contents.

The provision of location tracking for mobile agents is designed to deliver a message to a moving object in a network. Most tracking methods exploit relay stations that hold location information to forward messages to a target mobile agent. In this paper, we propose an efficient location tracking method for mobile agents using the domain-based proxy as a relay station. Mobile agents can reduce the length of their migration paths by visiting hosts in the same domain first, rather than selecting hosts randomly. The proposed method exploits the domain-based moving patterns of mobile agents and minimizes registration and message delivery costs. Since the long proxy chain can contribute to the high message delivery cost, we also propose a compressing method to reduce the message delivery cost.

본 논문은 인터넷상에서 다양한 매체를 이용한 서비스를 제공할 때 생길 수 있는 긴 사용자-서버간 지연, 엄청난 서버의 부하, 네트워크 자원의 비효율적 사용과 같은 문제점들을 위한 개선된 방법으로 사용자에 가까운 복수의 노드들을 두어 서버에서 전송된 데이터를 분산 저장하는 방법에 대해 다루고 있다. 새로운 분산 Proxy 기법은 VOD 서비스를 원하는 사용자들이 통일한 아이템에 대한 요청이 많은 서비스 패턴을 분석해서, 중복된 네트워크 부하는 줄이는 과정을 수행한다. 사용자가 요청한 영화는 서버에서 전송을 받는데 이때, HEN(Head-End-Node)에 구현된 여러 Proxy에 아이템의 일부를 나누어 저장하고 이에 대한 정보 보관과 제어를 SA(Switching Agent)가 하게 된다. 사용자가 서비스를 요청할 경우 SA의 제어 하에 분산 Proxy에 교호적으로 접속을 하여 저장되어 있는 부분적인 데이터들을 서비스 받도록 한다. 이때 Proxy에 새로운 데이터 블록을 저장할 때는 부족한 저장공간으로 인해 LRU(Least Recently Used), LFU(Least Frequently Used), 또는 이들을 복합한 Hybrid 정책을 사용한다.

무선 정보 환경의 변화에 따라 다양한 정보에 대한 풍족함이 요구되면서 양질의 정보를 정확하고 빠르게 선별하여 획득하는 기술이 점점 중요하게 되었으며, 이러한 페러다임의 요구에 Mobile Agent는 중요한 연구가 된다. 본 논문에서는 Mobile Agent가 가져야 할 보안적 요구사항 중 신뢰할 수 있는 Proxy Server를 이용한 인증을 통해 Sever와 Mobile Agent간의 안전한 통신 방법을 제시하며, Server나 Mobile Agent의 부정이 발견되었을 경우 DSS(Digital Signature Standard) 방식의 서명값을 이용하여 이를 증명함으로써 보다 안전하고 효율적인 상호인증 방식을 제안하였다.

With the rapid development of IT technologies, many people talk to each other in real time on-line using messenger or use the messenger to share files for work. However, using this convenience, phishing crimes occur: e.g. demanding money, and if a criminal uses a bypassing technique like proxy in order to hide the IP address the criminal has used to log on, it is in fact, difficult to find the criminal's real IP address. This paper will propose a plan to measure against messenger phishing that may occur in advance by collecting the IP address with which a user has used in a dual channel mode and the real IP address obtained by ARIT Agent using ARIT technique, going through a separate identification process and deciding whether the user has accessed in a normal method.
