%0 Journal Article %T Secure Framework for Mobile Devices to Access Grid Infrastructure %A Kashif Munir %A Lawan Ahmad Mohammad %J International Journal of Computer Science and Information Security %D 2010 %I LJS Publisher and IJCSIS Press %X Mobile devices are gradually becoming prevalent in our daily life, enabling users in the physical world to interact with the digital world conveniently. Mobile devices increasingly offer functionality beyond the one provided by traditional resources processor, memory and applications. This includes, for example, integrated multimedia equipment, intelligent positioning systems, and different kinds of integrated or accessible sensors. For future generation grids to be truly ubiquitous we must find ways to compensate for the security limitations inherent in these devices as they interact with grid infrastructure in order to leverage available resources to authorized users. This paper looks into design architecture for mobile computing environment. Focus is given to security framework that will enhance the performance of grid computing in terms of secure design, architecture and accessibility. %K Autonomic computing %K middleware technologies %K Grid computing %K mobile computing %K ijcsis %K april 2010 %U http://sites.google.com/site/ijcsis/volume-8-no-1-april-2010
