Abstract

As the demand on ubiquitous communication increases, global roaming and vertical handover will be prevailing in the near future. Since this environment is accompanied by the frequent handovers at remote sites, a scalable and fast authentication becomes prerequisite for ubiquitous communication. In this paper, we suggest a framework for scalable and fast authentication, using hierarchical caching based on general trust relationship among domains. At the end, we show that the proposed scheme achieves reduced authentication delay and network overhead through an analytic method with fluid flow model.

국제 로밍 및 이기종 망간 핸드오버가 활성화된 환경에서 사용자에게 부드러운 통신 서비스를 지원하기 위해서는 보다 빠르고 확장성이 뛰어난 인증 기법이 필요하다 본 논문은 빠른 로밍을 지원하기 위한 확장성 높은 인증 프레임워크에 관한 것으로, 직간접적으로 구성된 도메인간의 일반적인 신뢰 관계를 바탕으로 계층적 캐슁을 구성한다. 계층적 인증 캐슁을 이용할 경우 확장성을 보장함은 물론 인증 지연 및 인증으로 인한 망의 부하를 줄일 수 있으며, 이를 수학적으로 분석하였다.
