An open source eID simulator
نویسندگان
چکیده
The German BSI started a project for an open source eID simulator. It will allow a wide range of personalisation, is more flexible than real cards and is free to use. Background and goals There is a rising need of test cards for developers of eID clients and companies which want to offer services by using the eID function of the German eID card. Today is difficult get test cards for new developers who want to evaluate the eID functions in their systems. Also for improvements and development of new protocols a open implementation of the eID functions would be helpful. Therefore the German BSI started a project together with HJP for an implementation of an open source eID simulator which provides all functionality of the German eID card. We will implement all functions of the eID functions as described in BSI TR-03110 and provide all sources of this implementation to interested developers which wants to participate in improving the simulator or just use it for their development. Part of this project is also a “virtual card reader driver” which provides direct PC/SC access to the eID card simulator (see figure 1). Figure 1: Link between eID client and eID card simulator Later on we will start to port the simulator to mobile NFC devices (e.g. Android smartphones). Over the NFC interface the mobile device shall act in card emulation mode to simulate an eID card with all functions.

On the design and implementation of the Open eCard App
The paper at hand discusses the design and implementation of the “Open eCard App”, which is a lightweight and open eID client, which integrates major international standards. It supports strong authentication and electronic signatures with numerous common electronic identity cards in desktop as well as mobile environments. The Open eCard App is designed to be as lightweight, usable and modular ...
متن کاملAn Extendible Open Source P2P Simulator
A large number of peer-to-peer (p2p) systems have been developed in recent years. Many of these new approaches to p2p networks have been developed in parallel with a simulator of one sort or another. Other authors have already started to call for standardization in the area of p2p simulation (Schlosser et al., 2002), and this paper supports that call. It also goes further to suggest that an ext...

متن کاملQuality management in open source projects - experiences from the open ecard project
Open Source Software (OSS) has immensely increased in popularity over the years and it is well known, that software with public access to the sources is on average less error prone than closed source software, especially if the project is supported by a large community which peer reviews the sources [Kua02]. For new and smaller projects however there is no large community yet and hence achievin...
متن کاملIsisWorld: An Open Source Commonsense Simulator for AI Researchers
A metareasoning problem involves three parts: 1) a set of concrete problem domains; 2) reasoners to reason about the problems; and, 3) metareasoners to reason about the reasoners. We believe that the metareasoning community would benefit from agreeing on the first two problems. To support this kind of collaboration, we offer an open source 3D simulator containing everyday, commonsense problems ...
