Single Sign-On Scheme using XML for Multimedia Device Control in Children’s Game Network based on OSGi service Platform

This paper proposes a single sign-on scheme in which a user offers his credential information to children’s game network running the OSGi (Open Service Gateway Initiative) service platform, to obtain user authentication and control a remote device through a mobile device using this authentication scheme, based on SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language). By defining the single sign-on profile to overcome the handicap of the low computing and memory capability of the mobile device, we provide a clue to applying automated user authentication to control a remote device using a mobile device for distributed mobile environments including children’s game network based on OSGi.
