The Man-in-the-Middle (MiM ) attack is used by attackers to perform sniffing activities in switched LAN networks. The potential damage to a network from sniffing activities can be very significant. This paper proposes a mechanism for detecting malicious hosts performing MiM attack in switched LAN networks. The proposed mechanism consists of sending trap and spoofed packets to the network’s host...

The increasing openness and heterogeneity of distributed computing systems requires the representation of meta-information in distributed environments. This paper presents a conceptual framework for discussing meta-information, and describes the DSTC’s design for a universal Meta-Information Manager (MIM) with the key properties of heterogeneity, extensibility and openness. The DSTC MIM design ...

IntRoductIon Gilbert syndrome (GS, MIM #143500) is characterized by fluctuating mild, unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia <85 μmol/L and is caused by mutations in the bilirubin uridine diphosphate (UDP)‐glucuronosyltransferase gene (UGT1A1).[1] Dubin‐Johnson syndrome (DJS, MIM #237500) is characterized by fluctuating mild, predominantly conjugated hyperbilirubinemia and is caused by mutations in th...

Location is the most essential presence information for mobile users. In this paper, we present an improved time-based clustering technique for extracting significant locations from GPS data stream. This new location extraction mechanism is incorporated with Google Maps for realizing a cooperative place annotation service on mobile instant messenger (MIM). We also design an ontology-based MIM p...

With the rapid development ofmobile technology and large usage rates ofmobile phones, mobile instant message (MIM) services have been widely adopted in China. Although previous studies on the adoption of mobile services are quite extensive, few focus on customer satisfaction and loyalty to MIM in China. In this study, we examine the determinants of customer satisfaction and loyalty. The finding...
