A Regeneration Model for Mitigation Against Attacks on HTTP Servers for Mobile Wireless Networks

The widespread expansion of the internet has fueled a global surge in the utilization of various online transactions, with a significant portion of such services operating on mobile web platforms. Simultaneously, the deployment of innovative Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) technologies and mobile applications has grown as solutions for diverse tasks. Unfortunately, this progress has attracted the attention of hackers, who continually devise new strategies to exploit the vulnerabilities inherent in mobile networks. This study aims to address the escalating challenges posed by cyber threats in the era of widespread internet expansion, particularly focusing on securing mobile web platforms against sophisticated attacks such as Structured Query Language Injection (SQLi) for web-based database solutions and Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) for various applications. In response to the identified vulnerabilities, this paper proposes an HTTP regeneration (HReg) model that not only detects various cyber-attacks but also ensures the uninterrupted provision of critical services during such incidents. The model introduces an innovative regeneration algorithm capable of scanning both the connection channel and web application to detect attacks, creating survivable connections within the underlying TCP engine to replace compromised ones during an ongoing attack. In simulated environments using OMNeT++, where the server is subjected to attacks, the experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the model. The response and performance metrics, including throughput (73%), delivery ratio (68.8%), delay (3s), and network load, showcase the model's ability to detect and neutralize attacks. A comparison with state-of-the-art approaches highlights the superior performance of the regeneration model, attributed to its additional survivability layer. While the regeneration model proves robust in simulated environments, its real-world application may encounter limitations. Future research should explore these limitations to enhance the practical applicability of the proposed model. The proposed HReg model's resilient performance under attack conditions ensures the survivability of web-based applications. This innovative approach offers practical implications for securing mobile web platforms, providing continuous delivery of critical services even in the face of persistent and evolving cyber threats. This research addresses a significant gap in existing efforts by not only focusing on attack detection but also emphasizing the development of a survivable TCP connection for HTTP servers during attacks. The introduced regeneration model stands out for its unique ability to maintain service continuity, showcasing originality in the approach to cybersecurity in the context of web-based applications.

Measuring Usability on User-Centered Mobile Web Application: Case Study on Financial Mathematics Calculator

Financial literacy is a person's skills regarding financial knowledge and behavior. In 2019, the National Survey of Financial Literacy and Inclusion (SNLIK) stated that Indonesia had a low level of financial literacy with a percentage of 38.03%. In 2016, the Indonesian government incorporated financial literacy into the K13 curriculum for the high school level to improve financial literacy at the student level. In line with that, students need facilities to help them learn financial literacy. This study aims to build an interaction design of financial mathematics calculators using the User-Centered Design method. The limitation of this study is the design uses a mobile web platform that targets high school students. The results of usability testing on effectiveness get an average task-completion rate score of 92.3%, an average efficiency of 92.0% overall relative efficiency, user satisfaction using the System Usability Scale (SUS) gets a score of 93.2 for the usability factor and a score of 74 for the learnability factor. The findings of this study indicate that the application is easy to use and provides a positive experience in learning financial literacy. The current study's results will support this application's use in future research as a new tool for providing financial literacy.

Dynamic Offloading of Web Application Execution Using Snapshot

Mobile web platforms are facing new demands for emerging applications, such as machine learning or augmented reality, which require significant computing powers beyond that of current mobile hardware. Computation offloading can accelerate these apps by offloading the computation-intensive parts of an app from a client to a powerful server. Unfortunately, previous studies of offloading in the field of web apps have a limitation for the offloading target code or require complex user annotations, hindering the widespread use of offloading in web apps. This article proposes a novel offloading system for web apps, which can simplify the offloading process by sending and receiving the execution state of a running web app in the form of another web app called the snapshot . Since running the snapshot restores the whole app state and continues the execution from the point where it was saved, we can offload regular web app computations that affect the DOM state as well as the JavaScript state, and we do not have to pre-install the app binary at the server. Moreover, the snapshot does not require any annotations to be captured, making computation offloading more transparent to app developers. We qualitatively compared the proposed system with previous approaches in terms of programming difficulty and the scope of offloadable codes. In addition, we implemented the proposed system based on a WebKit browser and evaluated the offloading performance with five computation-intensive web apps. Our system achieved significant speedup (from 1.7 to approximately 9.0) in all of the apps, compared to local execution, which proves the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Mobile web interface of academic libraries

AbstractMore and more academic libraries are offering their services via a mobile web platform. This study examined the current status of the mobile web interface of academic libraries in terms of their usability and tried to suggest an effective mobile service design for academic libraries. Seventy‐six mobile academic library web sites were identified. Their first pages were captured and their menu systems were analyzed for different aspects, such as frequently appearing menu items, a search box and search links, URL hiding, menu icons and textual menus. We found many undesirable interfaces that waste space or cause users to be confused. A significant gap between users' needs and the services offered was also identified. To overcome this gap, more efforts should be made in finding users' needs first and implementing services as much as possible to meet such demands.
