Design and Implementation of Intelligent Personnel Management System

In order to resolve the problem of security monitoring and management for the elderly, children and employees of enterprises, and meet the application needs of protecting the information of stolen mobile phones, so designed an intelligent personnel management system based on Android mobile phone. The monitoring side and the monitored side both used smart phones and transferred data to each other via the server in system. This system was available in real-time location query, historical route reviewing, distress alerting emergency, security protection of privacy information and other functions. The simulated and practical test shows that the system runs in good condition and could provide real-time and effective information for related personnel, so it has a pretty promising.

A New Fingerprint Biometric Remote User Authentication Scheme Using Chaotic Hash Function On Mobile Devices

Abstract ABSTRACT A remote user authentication is a mechanism to authenticate remote users over insecure communication networks. It is evident that, with the passage of time, the volume of mobile user authentication is increasing because of the ease in accessing resources from any remote location. In 2008, Khan et al. proposed an efficient and practical chaotic hash-based fmgerprint biometric remote user authentication scheme for mobile devices. The current paper, however, demonstrates that Khan et al.’s scheme is vulnerable to a privileged insider’s attack and impersonation attacks by using lost or stolen mobile devices. In order to isolate such problems, the current paper also presents an improved remote user authentication scheme based on Khan et al.’s scheme.
