IntroductIon One hindrance to the widespread adoption of mobile agent technology is the lack of security. Security will be the issue that has to be addressed carefully if a mobile agent is to be used in the field of electronic commerce. SAFERor Secure Agent Fabrication, Evolution, and Roamingis a mobile agent framework that is specially designed for the purpose of electronic commerce By build...

Quality of protection for mobile multimedia applications

In traditional computer systems, security is typically provided in a one-or-nothing manner; the system is either secure or insecure. Such an approach is insufficient for pervasive environments that contain heterogenous devices with varying computing resources. The small, portable handheld devices are often left unsecured due to their limited computing power. The approach is also inadequate for ...

Mobile Robotics: Research, Applications and Challenges

This overview paper discusses some of the major focuses of current mobile robotics research, introduces a specific application of mobile robotics — automated inspection using autonomous novelty detection — and presents one of the future challenges of mobile robotics research: that of applying quantitative methods in mobile robotics, in order to change the discipline from an empirical one to a m...
