The growth in the use of ubiquitous computing based on mobile services as an enabler to conduct business more effectively has been phenomenal. Technology acceptance model (TAM) has been applied in different contexts to examine a wide range of information technologies (IT). As more and more companies are finding ways to utilize ubiquitous computing based on mobile services, an important issue is to understand what factors will impact the decisions of consumers in adopting the services. Based on TAM with three additional groups of external factors, i.e., service-related factors (ubiquitous access, context awareness) and technology-related factors (perceived security risk, network connectivity) that are theoretically justified as having influence on both perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use which are additionally considered, a research model for the investigated technology acceptance was developed and empirically examined, using responses from more than intended users of ubiquitous computing based on mobile services. The specific purposes of this study are as follows. Firstly, this study is to identify service beliefs considering unique characteristics for ubiquitous services such as perceived ubiquitous access and perceived context awareness. Secondly, this study is to investigate network characteristics beliefs such as perceived security and perceived connectivity. Thirdly, this paper investigates the relationship among variables such as ubiquitous characteristics, network characteristics, behavioral beliefs, and intention to use ubiquitous web services. This study uses a structural equation model to test the research model. The major results of this study are as follows. Firstly, ubiquitous access has a influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Context awareness has an influence on perceived usefulness. Secondly, User familiarity has an influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, and intention to use. User innovativeness has an influence on perceived ease of use. Thirdly, perceived security risk has an influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Network connectivity has an influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Fourth, there exist differential effects among factors in structural model among information, transaction, and entertainment services.

이동 컴퓨팅 환경이란 사용자가 어떤 장소로 이동하더라도 동일한 환경에서 네트워크 서비스를 지속적으로 끊임없이 제공받을 수 있는 환경을 말하며, Mobile IP는 이러한 환경이 가지는 특성들을 고려한 네트워크 표준 프로토콜이다. 하지만 이 프로토콜도 이동 노드의 빈번한 핸드오프 시 위치 등록 절차에서 반드시 흠 에이전트 (Home Agent, HA)를 접근해야 하므로 네트워크 자원과 서비스 지연을 초래하는 단점을 가진다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 지역적 외부 에이전트 (Foreign Agent, FA) 기법을 도입하여 방문 도메인에서의 등록을 지역화 하여 이동 노드의 빈번한 핸드오프 시 위치 등록 절차에 대한 지연 부하를 최소화 하는 방안을 제안한다. 또한 부하 분산 요소를 부가하여, 모든 FA가 상황에 따라 동적으로 루트 권한 FA가 될 수 있는 기법을 도입하여 중앙으로만 집중되는 위치 등록 메시지를 지역적 FA에 분산하여 네트워크 자원 낭비를 줄이고 빠른 위치 등록 응답 시간을 얻을 수 있으며 기존 Mobile IP에서의 패킷 지연 및 손실 그리고 재전송을 예방하고자 한다.

Mobile cloud computing (MCC) has revolutionized the way in which the services can be obtained from the cloud service providers. Manifold increase in the number of mobile devices and subscribers in MCC has further enhanced the need of an efficient and robust authentication solution. Earlier, the subscribers could get cloud-computing services from the cloud service providers only after having consulted the trusted third party. Recently, Tsai and Lo has proposed a multi-server authenticated key agreement solution for MCC based on bilinear pairing, to eliminate the trusted third party for mutual authentication. The scheme has been novel as far as the minimization of trusted party involvement in authenticating the user and service provider, is concerned. However, the Tsai and Lo scheme has been found vulnerable to server spoofing attack (misrepresentation attack), de-synchronization attack and denial-of-service attack, which renders the scheme unsuitable for practical deployment in different wireless mobile access networks. Therefore, we have proposed an improved model based on bilinear pairing, countering the identified threats posed to Tsai and Lo scheme. Besides, the proposed work also demonstrates performance evaluation and formal security analysis.

In recent years, it is required that computing support mobile user with computer. The advantage of mobile computing is that users may access all their applications from any location, whether they are in another building or a different state. So, Internet combines with mobile computing technology to make new communication environment for supporting mobility. The research for solving the problem of mobility is actively in progress. This paper describes the implementation of tunneling method for flexible bypass between specific region. Tunneling method provide mobile service to mobile hosts. IP datagram's address tranform method is IP-within-IP encapsulation by which an IP datagram may be encapsulated within an IP datagram. The developed IP-within-IP protocol can provide not only enhanced performance because it is implemented in kernel mode, but also convenience of usage to the application developers because it gives user interface as a dynamic link library. Verification of IP packet tunneling was text file transfer program.

Data access bias can be observed in various types of computing systems. In this paper, we characterize the data access bias in modern mobile computing platforms. In particular, we focus on the access bias of data observed at three different subsystems based on our experiences. First, we show the access bias of file data in mobile platforms. Second, we show the access bias of memory data in mobile platforms. Third, we show the access bias of web data and web servers. We expect that the characterization study in this paper will be helpful in the efficient management of mobile computing systems.

Our society is depending on mobile devices that play a major role in our lives. Utilizing these devices is possible due to their speed power and efficiency in performing basic as well as sophisticated operations that can be found in traditional computers like desktop workstations. The challenge with using mobile devices is that organizations are concerned with the interference between personal and corporate use due to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) trend. This paper highlights the importance of mobile devices in our daily tasks and the associated risks involved with using these devices. Several technologies and countermeasures are reviewed in this paper to secure the mobile devices from different attempts of attacks. It is important to mention that this paper focuses on technical measures rather than considering different aspects of security measures as recommended by the cybersecurity community.

The last decade has seen a rapid growth in the use of mobile devices all over the world. With an increasing use of mobile devices, mobile applications are becoming more diverse and complex, demanding more computational resources. However, mobile devices are typically resource-limited (i.e., a slower-speed CPU, a smaller memory) due to a variety of reasons. Mobile users will be capable of running applications with heavy computation if they can offload some of their computations to other places, such as a desktop or server machines. However, mobile users are typically subject to dynamically changing network environments, particularly, due to user mobility. This makes it hard to choose good offloading decisions in mobile environments. In general, users' mobility can provide some hints for upcoming changes to network environments. Motivated by this, we propose a mobility model of each individual user taking advantage of the regularity of his/her mobility pattern, and develop an offloading decision-making technique based on the mobility model. We evaluate our technique through trace-based simulation with real log data traces from 14 Android users. Our evaluation results show that the proposed technique can help boost the performance of mobile devices in terms of response time and energy consumption, when users are highly mobile.

The mutual exclusion (MX) paradigm can be used as a building block in many practical problems such as group communication, atomic commitment and replicated data management where the exclusive use of an object might be useful. The problem has been widely studied in the research community since one reason for this wide interest is that many distributed protocols need a mutual exclusion protocol. However, despite its usefulness, to our knowledge there is no work that has been devoted to this problem in a mobile computing environment. In this paper, we describe a solution to the mutual exclusion problem from mobile computing systems. This solution is based on the token-based mutual exclusion algorithm.
