Title: Towards Mobile Internet Accesses

Abstract: With the rapid advancement of mobile communication technology, increasingly more users rely on mobile devices to connect to the Internet, such as smart phones and PDAs. However, this technology trend and wide user accessibility have presented new challenges to the current practice from various aspects, ranging from the improved QoS to better security and privacy demanded by mobile users. In this talk, I will discuss some of these challenges and our research solutions to address them. Specifically, I will discuss how to efficiently address the multiple dimensional heterogeneity problem in both on-demand and live streaming services. In order to solve increasingly serious problems of mobile malware on mobile devices, I will also present a novel technique to detect mobile malware in order to protect mobile users.
