Supporting E-commerce in Wireless Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe a set of services that are either necessary or desirable for support of e-commerce transactions in wireless networks. We focus on e-commerce transactions that involve digitally represented information, such as audio or video files, computer software or text documents. For each proposed service we first explain its utility independently of the network connectivity and then we emphasize its benefits in wireless networks, when applicable.

Supporting Mobile Commerce Applications Using Dependable Wireless Networks
Mobile commerce (m-commerce) is an emerging discipline involving applications, mobile devices, middleware, and wireless networks. While most of existing e-commerce applications can be modified to run in a wireless environment, m-commerce also involves many more new applications that become possible only due to the wireless infrastructure. These applications include mobile financial services, us...
متن کاملSupporting Quality-Of-Service of Mobile Commerce Transactions
With the deployment of 3G and 4G mobile networks, a sizable proportion of e-commerce traffic is expected to move to these networks. These transactions are likely to be diverse. Mobile transactions can include unique requirements such as atomicity (all or none steps), push or pull, security, and privacy. Some mobile commerce transactions may not be completed because users are mobile, unpredictab...
متن کاملLPKP: location-based probabilistic key pre-distribution scheme for large-scale wireless sensor networks using graph coloring
Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...
