SUMMARYFor the efficient communications between mobile or fixed hosts in mobile networks, the route optimization and its security are indispensable. So, the Internet Engineering Task Force introduced a NEMO basic support protocol in 2005. However, this protocol does not provide a strong security between hosts and especially in nested-mobile network it can incur a pinball routing problem. And the previous Proxy Binding Update (PUB) protocol has an advantage that can prove the ownership of address of a host using Multi-key Cryptographically Generated Address (MCGA) which can alleviate a neighbor bombing attack. However, a Mobile Network Node (MNN) belonging to the mobile network which can have low power or limited computing capability may be require burdened costs such as signification and verification of messages. Also, the PUB protocol does not provide the secure message communication architecture between the MNN and its Mobile Router (MR). In this paper we propose a CGA-based Authentication Route Optimization scheme (CARO) in mobile hotspots with heterogeneous networks. The proposed CARO protocol satisfies two problems using IPsec Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) tunnel, a secret mobile group key, and the CGA. And we also do not require the considerable computing costs to the MNN or a Correspondent Node. In performance analysis, we prove more secure and efficient protocols than the previous protocols using the defense of various attacks and the result of computational cost, etc.

Many fine art pieces have been reproduced in digital form. The digital reproductions have been used to store and transmit the original work. In contrast, mobiles, or moving sculptures, such as those designed by Alexander Calder cannot be reproduced realistically by photographs and/or static images. The real characteristics of mobiles come from the motions generated by interactive external forces applied to their structures. Hence people could not fully enjoy them through static images or even static three-dimensional models. We present a virtual mobile system where users can easily control the mobile and can feel the impressions that the artist originally intended to provide. Virtual winds are generated by blowing on a microphone which then exert external forces to the mobile. This microphone interface lets users control the mobile while they are watching it through a monitor. We introduce a linear time solution for the constraint dynamics and an improved impulse dynamics to speed up the simulation. Using these techniques, we achieve a realtime simulation of the mobile on personal computers. The techniques presented can easily be extended to simulate other interactive dynamics systems.
