Currently, web syndication is usually utilized in desktop environments, but not considering mobile environments. In this paper, we focus on the extension of the desktop based web syndication to the mobile internet. Simply adapting the desktop based web syndication to mobile devices can cause high wireless internet communication cost. We propose PMS(Proxy-based Mobile Syndication) model which achieves low cost mobile syndication. In the PMS model, MWProxy is defined as a proxy server between mobile devices and web sites. It can reduce the communication cost by peeking up modified items from the web sites and reducing the channel size. In this paper, we designed and implemented the PMS system in a mobile phone and evaluated the performance of the PMS system by conducting real experiments using mobile emulators.

Management policies of Web Proxy Cache, for the QoS of Web users, are mainly focused on the page replacement and the data consistency policy. But the two subjects have been studied independently to each other regardless of its possibility of cooperation. In this paper, we introduce the performance improvement obtained by adapting the characteristic of LMF used in data consistency policy to LRU, thus taking the better performance synergy as a result of complementary cooperation. Various policies for the management of Web Proxy Cache are in progress, this study can be a way of performance guide to increase cache hit ratio and reduce the transmission overhead of Web Server.

Recently, as construction of information infra including high-speed communication networks remarkably expands, more various information services have been provided. Thus the number of internet users rapidly increases, and it results in heavy load on Web server and higher traffics on networks. The phenomena cause longer response time that means worse quality of service. To solve such problems, much effort has been attempted to loosen bottleneck on Web server, reduce traffic on networks and shorten response times by caching informations being accessed more frequently at the proxy server that is located near to clients. And it is also possible to improve internet performance further by allowing clients to share informations stored in proxy caches. In this paper, we perform simulations of hierarchical proxy caches with the 3-level 4-ary tree structure by using real web traces, and analyze cache hit ratio for various cache replacement policies and cache sizes when the delayed-store scheme is applied. According to simulation results, the delayed-store scheme increases the remote cache hit ratio, that improves quality of service by shortening the service response time.

In current e-commerce system, it happens that client's confidential information such as credit card numbers, pin numbers, or digital certificate may pass through a web proxy server or an altered proxy server without client's awareness. Even though the confidential information is encrypted and sent through SSL(Secure Sockets Layer) or TLS(Transport Layer Security) protocol, it can be exposed to the risk of sniffing by the digital certificate forgery at the proxy server, which is called the SSL MITM(Man-In-The-Middle) Proxy attack. In this paper, current credit card web-payment systems, which is weak at proxy information alternation attack, are analyzed. A resolution with certificate proxy server is also proposed to prevent the MITM attack.

A widget is a small application running by the users' favorite services, so they are provided with web contents without explicitly visiting the web site. Although widgets can be easily implemented with Open APIs, only a few web sites provide them because of refactoring the structures of web resource to supply Open APIs to the widget developers. This paper presents an Open API Proxy Server System for widget services. The system consists of two components: an Open API Source Code Generator and an Open API Proxy Server. The Open API Source Code Generator provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for users to generate the Open APIs of user's choice and sends the Open API source code generation request to the Open API Proxy Server. The Open API Proxy Server using the HTML Table Processing Library receives the HTML web page from web site and extracts useful information from the target HTML table. The proxy server converts the extracted data into the corresponding XML document which becomes available through the Open API. We verify the operation of the proposed system through experiments with the HTML tables in the example web sites.

Recently, there have been some trials to use a TV system as an Internet terminal for easier and more convenient use of Internet. Because a TV Web browser system has a TV display with a set-top box as an execution environment, it has some limits and there are specific requirements. The efficient implementation of the Web browser for TV needs the proxy server that includes HTML conversions for TV environments as well as general cash functions. In order to implement a Web environment on general TV and set-tops, we introduce a distributed structure using a proxy server and propose TV - HTML conversions as an important feature of the proxy server.

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.

최근 이동컴퓨터(Mobile computer)는 사용자들이 기하급수적으로 늘고 있다. 그러나, 이동컴퓨터는 기존의 PC나 W/S을 사용하는 환경보다 이동성을 고려하므로, 화면 크기, 부속들의 크기와 무게, CPU에 사용되는 전력, 네트워크 인터페이스에서 제약성을 지니고 있다. 이런 제약으로 인해 이동컴퓨터는 기존의 컴퓨터 보다 성능이 떨어진다. 이런 환경에서 인터넷을 사용할 때 WWW같은 멀티미디어 전송 서비스는 원하는 시간 내에 처리하기 힘들다. 따라서, 현재 이동컴퓨터를 위한 인터넷 서비스들은 Proxy server를 이용하여 멀티미디어 데이터의 크기를 줄이거나 문자로 처리하게 하여 사용자들에게 좀 더 빠른 환경을 제공하고 있다. 그러나, 기존의 Proxy Server들에서 구현된 화면에서 보여지는 그래픽 파일(Graphic File)의 일방적인 size의 조정으로 파일의 양을 줄이기 때문에는 이동컴퓨터에게 똑같은 정보를 제공함으로써 환경이 다양한 이동컴퓨터에는 충분하지 못하다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이동컴퓨터환경에서 사용자들이 원하는 WWW service를 빠른 시간에 받을 수 있게 하면서, 화면크기, 색 표현 능력 등이 각기 다른 이동컴퓨터의 H/W 사양에 맞추어서 효과적으로 보낼수 있게 포트(port)를 다양화한 Prosy server를 설계해 보도록 한다.

The paper is design and implementation of the system to support security communication between a Web Browser and a CGI program by a Web Server using PKI(Public Key Infrastructure. This system uses GSS(Generic Security Service)-API to communicate with PKI, offers a Web user a Client Proxy, and offers a CGI developer there library functions related with security. TLS(Transport Layer Security) supports security communication between a Web Browser and a Web Server, but the system supports security communication between a Web Browser and a CGI program as the protected data received from a Client Proxy are sent to a CGI program, and the CGI program decrypts the data using the library functions supported by this system.

With the explosive popularity of the World Wide Web, the low penonnance of network often leads web clients to wait a long time for web server's response. To resolve this problem, web caching (proxy) has been considered as the most efficient technique for web server to handle this problem. The placement of web proxy is critical to the overall penonnance, and Li et al. showed the optimal placement of proxies for a web server in the internet with the linear and tree topology when the number of proxies, ]M, is given [4, 5]. They focused on minimizing the over all access time. However, it is also considerable for target web server to minimize the total number of proxies while each proxy server guarantees not to exceed certain res(Xlnse time for each request from its clients. In this paper, we consider the problem of finding the optimal number and placement of web proxies with the lin~ar and tree topology under the given threshold cost for delay time.
