Users Supporting Multiple (Mobile) Electronic Payment Systems in Online Purchases: An Empirical Study of Their Payment Transaction Preferences

Transaction Flow in Card Payment Systems Using Mobile Agents

In this paper, a system for controlling transaction flow in card-based payment systems and its performance benefit using mobile agents is presented. The model consists of the negotiation semantics, the mobile agent module, and three interactive systems in e-payment: the bank, point-of-sale (POS), and the Interswitch. We present a mobile agent-based scenario for e-payment system and discuss the ...

Verifiable Transaction Atomicity for Electronic Payment Protocols

We study the transaction atomicity problem for designing electronic payment protocols in distributed systems. We observe that the techniques that are used to guarantee transaction atomicity in a database system are not robust enough to guarantee transaction atomicity in an electronic payment system, in which a set of dishonest or malicious participants may exhibit unpredictable behavior and cau...

Electronic Payment and Online Gaming

Not surprisingly, it turns out, that there is neither a "best" nor a "most secure" ePayment system. The adequacy of these systems depends on the application context. A use-value analysis is an appropriate and easy to use evaluation m...

With our payment model, every involved merchant will be notified to verify the license information of a content on the settlement day before the...
