Title: A Novel Protocol for Securing Wireless Internet Service Provider's Hotspots
Abstract: Wireless Internet service Providers need to secure their networks. Establishing a secure link between an access point and a client's WI-FI enabled device is a challenging issue. This paper provides an efficient cross-layer pairing protocol for internet WI-FI networks. The protocol uses information-theoretic security. We also present how to establish secure communication between client's devices. Besides, we propose a mechanism to enforce the communication security by encrypting the mac adresses in each message

Title: Ad-hoc WLAN Broadcatching on Mobile Phones
Abstract: We are going to demonstrate how broadcatching, a combination of RSS and BitTorrent peer-to-peer file sharing, can be used on an ad-hoc network with mobile phones. Today, RSS and BitTorrent based broadcatching provides a web based distribution channel capable of delivering media to a large group of consumers at a low cost. BitTorrent provides the low cost method for distributing large files to a large group and RSS enables a website to easily provide a subscription to a series of BitTorrent files. This efficiency in the distribution makes broadcatching ideal for a mobile phone, since its resources are limited on serving a large group of clients.

Title: BitTorrent at Mobile Phones
Abstract: BitTorrent is one of the most efficient peer-to-peer content sharing protocols. The authors took part in implementing SymTorrent: a full featured BitTorrent client application for high-end mobile phones based on Symbian OS. Recently, they have also brought the BitTorrent technology to low-end mobile by creating a prototype application, called MobTorrent. Currently MobTorrent supports only content downloading (implementation of upload functionality is on-going). The target platform of MobTorrent is the S40 platform, which is based on the Java Micro Edition technology. This paper contains a brief overview of the BitTorrent protocol, introduces the applications and outlines the demonstration.

Title: Computing State Migration between Mobile Platforms for Seamless Computing Environments
Abstract: Stateless computing is a new computing service focused on migrating user's computing contexts among different devices. In the near future, seamless computing will make computing environment easier to use and human centric. Users will not have spend time doing computing environment setup such as installation and upgrade. They will bring their own computing contexts, which consist of programs, files, and execution states, inside their pockets as saved in a small memory stick. The computing contexts will be restored on various devices, e.g. TV, desktops, mobile phone, PDA, etc. Our demonstration will show the early step to the seamless computing vision. We will demonstrate a seamless computing prototype which migrates computing contexts among different mobile embedded devices. The core technology inside the prototype which enables this computing state capability is the embedded virtual machine monitor (VMM), named as \textit{Secure Xen on ARM}. We will migrate the whole state of a virtual machine between two HW platforms. Secure Xen on ARM run on the two platforms. A virtual machine running under the VMM on one platform is saved during its execution to USB memory stick, then the memory stick is plugged in to the other platform and the saved context is restored and continues execution of the virtual machine.

Title: Distributed Hash Table on Mobile Phones
Abstract: Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) are commonly used in wired peer-to-peer networks for various purposes. However, implementing a DHT on mobile devices, especially on commercially available mobile phones, has not been carried out yet. We created a generic DHT library that is based on the Kademlia protocol. It can store and retrieve arbitrary data in a network that consists of mobile phones only. In this demonstration, we show a working prototype of the system by setting up a small network over Ad-hoc WLAN. We also demonstrate the main concepts behind the DHT by displaying online network information so that the audience can track the status of the DHT in real-time.

Title: Implementation on a Real-time SVC Encoder for Mobile Broadcasting
Abstract: Scalable Video Coding (SVC) can be applicable in mobile broadcasting environment due to the flexibility of spatial, temporal and quality scalability. Recently, SVC technology becomes mature rapidly but its reference SW encoder isn't optimized yet. Therefore, we have developed a real-time SW SVC encoder for broadcasting. In this paper, we show our SVC encoder that can provide two spatial layers: QVGA(320x240) and VGA(640x480). The base layer can be fully compatible with H.264/AVC. Our encoder is performing real-time operation on a normal PC by optimizing SVC algorithm.

Title: INTELiCON: Intelligent Connectivity Framework for the Simultaneous Utilization of Multiple Interfaces
Abstract: We introduce a new networking approach that significantly improves the performance, reliability and resiliency of network data delivery for home media and other applications. The Intelligent Connectivity (INTELiCON) framework leverages multiple network links simultaneously in an intelligent, dynamic and coordinated fashion to ensure perfect video and audio delivery, even in the presence of extreme interference and packet errors. The techniques employed by INTELiCON can be used over a host of wireless and wired networking technologies, including Wi-Fi, UWB, Ethernet and others. INTELiCON manages media transmissions over several network interfaces simultaneously and employs intelligent feedback algorithms that dynamically adapt to changing conditions to ensure smooth real-time video and audio playback. In addition, INTELiCON offers significant throughput increases that can more than triple the application bandwidth for non real-time file delivery as compared with traditional solutions.

Title: Internet Search on TV
Abstract: On home CE devices such as TVs that lack keyboard and mouse input devices, using browsers can become awkward and tedious; they also don't provide a "lean back" experience that home users are typically used to. To address these problems, we have developed assistive technologies that enable users to find and access Internet content related to the TV program they are watching. We also developed intuitive and unobtrusive user interfaces that allow users to access such relevant Internet content using the navigations buttons on a traditional TV remote control. Similarly, user interfaces for an Internet tablet PC were also developed to facilitate remote browsing of the Internet content related to a TV program.
