    Cloud based service registry for location based mobile web services system
    (IEEE Computer Society help@computer.org, 2013) D'Souza, M.; Ananthanarayana, V.S.
    Location based services (LBS) are growing in popularity due to the growing number of smart-phone users. The architectural design of LBS systems plays a major role in delivering location based services in ubiquitous environments. Service oriented architecture (SOA) which uses services as its basic constructs is the latest trend in designing and developing loosely coupled distributed applications even in heterogeneous environments. Cloud computing is another latest area which provides highly reliable and scalable infrastructure environment for resource intensive applications. This paper gives an overview of SOA based LBS system and explains how to move service registry to the cloud to utilize the best of both SOA and Cloud infrastructure. © 2013 IEEE.

    Enhanced lbs discovery in a decentralized registry based web services environment
    (Rinton Press Inc. sales@rintonpress.com, 2014) D'Souza, M.; Ananthanarayana, V.S.
    Location Based Services (LBS) is the most happening thing in the mobile industry today. Everybody is trying to generate revenue from location based services. Mobile phone manufacturers are developing new smart phones every day and network providers are offering high speed data connections. Several LBS providers and applications are available in the market but the major problem is service provider dependency. This paper gives an overview of a decentralized registry based architecture using web services technology which facilitates dynamic discovery, interoperability and provider independence. The web services technology uses UDDI registry service for publishing and discovering services but the discovery results obtained are not reliable as the service discovery considers only static service description. This paper contributes to enhancing LBS discovery by considering service dynamics and expanding LBS discovery process to neighboring locations. © Rinton Press.

    A Quantitative Method for Measuring Health of Authoritative Name Servers
    (IGI Global, 2022) Adiwal, S.; Rajendran, B.; Shetty D, P.D.
    The domain name system (DNS) is regarded as one of the critical infrastructure components of the global internet because a large-scale DNS outage would effectively take a typical user offline. Therefore, the internet community should ensure that critical components of the DNS ecosystem—that is, root name servers, top-level domain registrars and registries, authoritative name servers, and recursive resolvers—function smoothly. To this end, the community should monitor them periodically and provide public alerts about abnormal behavior. The authors propose a novel quantitative approach for evaluating the health of authoritative name servers – a critical, core, and a large component of the DNS ecosystem. The performance is typically measured in terms of response time, reliability, and throughput for most of the internet components. This research work proposes a novel list of parameters specifically for determining the health of authoritative name servers: DNS attack permeability, latency comparison, and DNSSEC validation. The aim is to understand the general behavior of authoritative name servers, detect sluggishness in their performance, and arrive at a score of their health through the aforesaid parameters. The effectiveness of identified parameters is evaluated by devising the corresponding probing algorithms and experimented with them among the authoritative name servers serving the world’s top 500 domains. This approach could be used periodically to assess and take necessary measures to protect authoritative domain name servers from abuse. © © 2022, IGI Global.
