Advances in Security in Computing and Communications

To detect unknown malware, heuristic methods or more generally statistical approaches are the most promising research trends nowadays, but their computing and detection performances are generally not compatible with what users do accept. Hence, most commercial AV products still heavily rely on signature-based detection (opcodes, control flow graph, and so on). This implies that frequent and pri...

Advances in Mobile Cloud Computing

As advances in technology occur, mobile cloud computing is able to overcome the issue of resource poverty that occurs in mobile devices. Manufacturers now look at cloud computing as an asset because they can run their products better. The number of businesses and individuals that are investing in cloud computing services is anticipated to grow rapidly. Rapid growth of this nature will have a la...

Advances in Telemedicine Using Mobile Communications

Future telemedicine systems will exploit mobile communications technology so that patients who are free to move around at home or at work, or in emergency medical situations, can be monitored in a hospital. At present, the GSM mobile telephone cellular network is limited to 9.6 kbps, but with the introduction of the third generation (3G) network, data rates of 144 kbps will be available, giving...
