JXTA Xat Segur

El projecte que es descriu consisteix en el desenvolupament d'una aplicació de xat emprant la tecnologia P2P, en la qual els missatges que s'intercanvien els diferents interlocutors es transmeten xifrats de forma que ningú fora d'ells pot conèixer el contingut de la conversa

JXTA Hordes : Anonimat en una xarxa P2P feta amb JXTA

Aquest projecte consisteix en definir i desenvolupar un servei per JXTA que permeti l'anonimat en comunicacions P2P. Aquest servei s'ha desenvolupat fent servir els mecanismes que ofereix JXTA de forma que estigui el màxim d'integrat al sistema i disponible per qualsevol aplicació JXTA que requereix d'aquesta funcionalitat. Aquest servei està basat en un protocol existent d'anonimat descrit al paper Hordes: A Multicast Based Protocol for Anonymity (Brian Neil Levine & Clay Shields) triat després de fer-ne un estudi dels protocols existents actualment.

JXTAnonym: An anonymity layer for JXTA services messaging

With the evolution of the P2P research eld, new problems, such as those related with information security, have arisen. It is important to provide security mechanisms to P2P systems, since it has already become one of the key issues when evaluating them. However, even though many P2P systems have been adapted to provide a security baseline to their underlying applications, more advanced capabilities are becoming necessary. Speci cally, privacy preservation and anonymity are deemed essential to make the information society sustainable. Unfortunately, sometimes, it may be di cult to attain anonymity unless it is included into the system's initial design. The JXTA open protocols speci cation is a good example of this kind of scenario. This work studies how to provide anonymity to JXTA's architecture in a feasible manner and proposes an extension which allows deployed services to process two-way messaging without disclosing the endpoints'identities to third parties.

A security layer for JXTA core protocols

JXTA define un conjunto de seis protocolos básicos especialmente adecuados para una computación ad hoc, permanente, multi-hop, peer-to-peer (P2P). Estos protocolos permiten que los iguales cooperen y formen grupos autónomos de pares. Este artículo presenta un método que proporciona servicios de seguridad en los protocolos básicos: protección de datos, autenticidad, integridad y no repudio. Los mecanismos que se presentan son totalmente distribuidos y basados ¿¿en un modelo puro peer-to-peer, que no requieren el arbitraje de un tercero de confianza o una relación de confianza establecida previamente entre pares, que es uno de los principales retos en este tipo de entornos.

A Security-aware Approach to JXTA-Overlay Primitives

The JXTA-Overlay project is an effort to use JXTA technologyto provide a generic set of functionalities that can be used by developers to deploy P2P applications. Since its design mainly focuses on issues such as scalability or overall performance, it does not take security into account. However, as P2P applications have evolved to fulfill more complex scenarios, security has become a very important aspect to take into account when evaluating a P2P framework. This work proposes a security extension specifically suited to JXTA-Overlay¿s idiosyncrasies, providing an acceptable solution to some of its current shortcomings.

JXTA-Overlay P2P Platform and Its Application for Robot Control

The design of an efficient collaborative multirobot framework that ensures the autonomy and the individualrequirements of the involved robots is a very challenging task. This requires designing an efficient platform for inter-robot communication. P2P is a good approach to achieve this goal. P2P aims at making the communication ubiquitous thereby crossing the communication boundary and has many attractive features to use it as a platform for collaborative multi-robot environments. In this work, we present the JXTA Overlay P2P system and its application for robot control. Since JXTAOverlay is able to overcome Firewalls, Routers and NATs, it is possible to control end-devices in a WAN without changing the network security policy. We used JXTA-Overlay for the control of robot motors. We evaluated the proposed system by many experiments and have shown that the proposed system has a good performance and can be used successfully for the control of robot.
