“…For instance, a proxy accelerator placed on the outgoing network path (with the purpose of speeding up communications) may obstacle botnet communications and operations, being it based on intermediation mechanisms (caching, data compression, etc…) that can alter the original informative data flux [28]- [30].…”

Abstract-Due to their limited capabilities, mobile devices have rarely been adopted as attack vectors. In this paper, we consider the execution of coordinated and distributed attacks perpetrated by mobile devices (mobile botnet). We first describe current botnets architectures, analyzing their strengths and weaknesses. Then, we identify problems deriving from the development of a mobile botnet. Appropriate solutions to such problems have been proposed, thus providing an important resource during design and development stages of a mobile botnet. ⎯ Index Terms-Distributed attacks, network attacks, network security, system architecture, smartphones, denial of service.

“…However, there are a number of systems designed to use a single remote proxy for customizing the Web, with communication initiated through the browser's proxy mechanism. This includes image and video filtering, HTTP request modifications, HTML filtering, user interface improvements especially for small screens, remote caching, and support for disconnected operation and user-selected background retrieval [4,8,5,6,13]. Other systems have made use of the two-proxy (local and remote) concept, for such customizations as filtering, prefetching and intelligent cache management at the local proxy [13,14].…”

We present a new Web middleware architecture that allows users to customize their view of the Web for optimal interaction and system operation when using non-traditional resource-limited client machines such as wireless PDAs (personal digital assistants). Web Stream Customizers (WSC) are dynamically deployable software modules and can be strategically located between client and server to achieve improvements i n performance, reliability, or security. An important design feature is that Customizers provide two points of control in the communication path between client and server, supporting adaptive system-based and content-based customization. Our architecture exploits HTTP's proxy capabilities, allowing Customizers to be seamlessly integrated with the basic Web transaction model. We describe the WSC architecture and implementation, and illustrate its use with three non-trivial, adaptive Customizer applications that we have built. We show that the overhead in our implementation is small and tolerable, and is outweighed by the benefits that Customizers provide.

“…The primary focus of existing research is on the development of protocols and techniques that deal with disconnection management, low bandwidth, and device resource constraints. The aim is to allow applications built for the wired world (e.g., World Wide Web and databases) to run in wireless domains using proxy-based approaches ( [2], [22]). In systems based on the cellular infrastructure or WLANs, the traditional client-proxy-server interaction is perhaps an appropriate model where the "client" database can be extremely lightweight [4], has a (partial) replica of the main database on the wired side [19], [34], or where selected data is continuously broadcast into the environment [1], [16].…”

Abstract-This paper presents a framework to address new data management challenges introduced by data-intensive, pervasive computing environments. These challenges include a spatio-temporal variation of data and data source availability, lack of a global catalog and schema, and no guarantee of reconnection among peers due to the serendipitous nature of the environment. An important aspect of our solution is to treat devices as semiautonomous peers guided in their interactions by profiles and context. The profiles are grounded in a semantically rich language and represent information about users, devices, and data described in terms of "beliefs," "desires," and "intentions." We present a prototype implementation of this framework over combined Bluetooth and Ad Hoc 802.11 networks and present experimental and simulation results that validate our approach and measure system performance.Index Terms-Mobile data management, pervasive computing environments, data and knowledge representation, profile-driven caching algorithm, profile driven data management, data-centric routing algorithm.
