Wireless World Research Forum ( WWRF ) 1 Title : Enhancing end - users privacy in 3 G networks

Mobile/wireless Internet is becoming available with the advent of third generation (3G) mobile communication systems. Along with the variety of new perspectives, mobile Internet also raises new concerns on security issues. The radio transmission is by nature more susceptible to eavesdropping and fraud in use than wireline transmission. The user mobility and the universal network access certainl...

Supporting Location-Aware Distributed Applications on Mobile Devices

TheWireless World Research Forum (WWRF) has identified ambient-awareness and device diversity as two key properties of applications and services in future mobile systems [1]. According to the WWRF, emerging applications for mobile devices will be adaptive, personalized, and context-aware. Ambient-awareness in particular is a crucial issue in indoor applications. Indeed, these applications need ...
