We generally use SSL/TLS protocol utilizing X.509 v3 certificates so as to provide a secure means in establishment an confidential communication and the support of the authentication service. SPKI/SDSI was motivated by the perception that X.509 is too complex and incomplete. This thesis focuses on designing a secure server and an implementation of the prototype which has two main modules, one is to support secure communication and RBAC, not being remained in the SPKI/SDSI server which was developed by the existing Geronimo project and the other is to wholly issue name-certificate and authorization-cerificate. And the demonstration embodied for our sewer is outlined hereafter.

As computing devices become ubiquitous and increasingly mobile, it becomes obvious that a synchronous and direct peer-to-peer communication model is not sufficient in distributed computing environment. Using an indirect event service instead of other traditional communication model has an advantage of decreasing the coupling of applications in a distributed environment and removing the need for many static dependencies. In this paper, we design and implement the secure event service for providing secure ubiquitous computing environment. The Secure Event Service implemented enables users to perform content-based event retrieval, and supports only eligible event comsumer and event producer can publish and receive events through the secure event service. SPKI/SDSI certificate is used for supporting authentication and authorization in the secure event service. In order to provide a content-based event retrieval, an asynchronous communication between event producers and consumers, and a disconnectedness support for mobile devices, we modify and expand the Javaspace package.
