Advancement in digitization gave rise to a new paradigm of communication, called Internet of Things (IoT), where various heterogeneous physical objects (IoT devices) with embedded intelligence can provide or receive services from each other seamlessly. One concerned issue is to maintain reliability in the system with these heterogeneous devices for effective utilization of services. Trust and Reputation...
Since emerged in 2004, Unified Threat Management (UTM) has been used widely to enhance network security protection. Typical UTM device integrates multiple security technologies, therefore its control and management involves various interfaces, message formats, communication protocols, and security policies and so on. Therefore, it is a big challenge to design and implement the configuration and management...
This is an introduction to the proceedings of the MWS 2007 workshop held at EDOC 2007. It first explains the motivation for and background of the workshop. Then, it contains a short description of the keynote, each long and short peer-reviewed paper, and the discussion session "impact of various execution environments on middleware for web services". After the closing statements, MWS 2007...
Many Web services are expected to run with high degree of security and dependability. To achieve this goal, it is essential to use a Web-services compatible framework that tolerates not only crash faults, but Byzantine faults as well, due to the untrusted communication environment in which the Web services operate. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of such a framework, called...
Accelerated by the rapid deployment of distributed systems and the Internet, online collaboration and information sharing are pervasive in enterprise computing environment. With regard to the requirements of online collaboration and information sharing, authentication information needs flexible manipulation to facilitate federation across trust domains. To achieve identity federation for federated...
This paper proposes a fast forward medium access control protocol (FFMAC) for quality-of-service (QoS) guarantee in multihop IEEE 802.11s wireless mesh networks with multiple channels. To the best of our knowledge, the proposed protocol is the first one which considers the multihop and multichannel issues simultaneously. It provides higher priority for real-time applications, while remaining the distributed...
