Providing Security to the Architecture of Presence Servers

Abstract

Mobile cloud Computing is a new emerging technology. This technology supports many applications and one such application is presence enabled application. Mobile presence server is the main component in presence enabled applications and they provide presence services to all mobile users in the network. As number of mobile user increases to a great extent there arises buddy list search problem. In-order to solve this problem a scalable server architecture called presence cloud has been introduced. To provide security to the above server architecture SSL protocol is used. The performance is evaluated by using the parameters such as search latency and response time. SSL protocol involves determination and exchange of keys which increases buddy list search delay and response time. Therefore SSL session resumption is used to decrease this searching time and response time.
