| Objective |
To hold a
morning or afternoon
session covering two key areas middleware for wireless networks and
infrastructure middleware. Middleware for wireless networks would cover
an eduroam practical and advanced session, whilst infrastructure
middleware would focus on identity access management business case,
best practice and reasons to consider federations. |

11:00-12:30 (90min) eduroam session (Chair: Yasuo Okabe)
11:00-11:05 Welcome
11:05-11:25 The
Australian Access Federation
James Sankar , AARNET
Abstract: This talk will cover
developments in Australia with specific references
to the work of the MAPS Project, MAMS Shibboleth test-bed, NCRIS and
the Australian Access Federation. It also covers work done to
support
APAN. The talk concludes with a look at the future in
Australia and
APAN.
Biography: James Sankar is Director for Applications and Services at
AARNet.
James has extensive experience in managing middleware projects and its
application to deliver secure and scalable applications and
services.
James worked has worked for UKERNA and AARNet. He has chaired
the
TF-Mobility group that developed eduroam, he is the co-chair of the
APAN Middleware Working Group, Steering Committee member for Smart
Services CRC and is a member of the Australia India Business Council.
11:25-11:45 Update on eduroam.jp
H Goto[remote] (Tohoku Univ), H Sone
Abstract: After the eduroam-JP started its operation in August 2006,
some universities and institutes have connected their W-LAN networks to
eduroam-JP, and now we have six members. I like to talk about an idea
for new configuration of VPN
in eduroam roaming networks.
11:45-12:05 Cross-Campus
WLAN Roaming Environment in Taiwan.
Che-nan Yang (TWAREN, National Center for High-Performance Computing,
NCHC)
Abstract: The Cross-Campus WLAN Roaming project was sponsored by the
National Science Council (NSC) and instructed by the National Science
and Technology Program for Telecommunications (NTP), the goal of this
project is to establish an cross-campus WLAN roaming environment and
architecture, to provide service and technical consultation for the
system, to integrate all
schools’ WLAN resources, to develop new applications, and to
jump start the development of new wireless industries within
Taiwan. By December 31st, 2006, there were a total of 163 colleges and
universities in Taiwan. 90% of them have
established campus WLAN environment and 55% of them have joined the
cross-campus WLAN roaming system. By July, 2007,
the number of schools and research institutes which has joined this
project had reached 110. This project’s WLAN
roaming system covers whole Taiwan area. It also uses AARNet
Roaming Center to connect to its European Roaming
Center. http://wlanrc.nchc.org.tw/web_eng/index1-1.html
Biography：Che-nan Yang received the B.S. degree in Computer and
Information Science from Tunghai University in 1998 and
the M.S. degree in Computer Science and Engineering from National Sun
Yat-Sen University in 2000. Since 2001, he
has been a member of the division of Network Technology Division,
National Center for High-Performance Computing
(NCHC), where he is currently an associate researcher. He has been
responsible for research and development of
TWAREN (Taiwan Advanced Research and Education Network). His research
interests include network performance
measurement, network management, Voice over IP.
12:05-12:25 An idea of China eduroam development steps and structure design
Ting Yang (UESTC, China)
Abstract: After University of electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) started a eduroam test bed in July 2006, we have started a national eduroam test bed this year. I like to talk about an idea for CERNET (China Education and Research Network) eduroam develop steps and structure design.
Biography: Ting Yang received M.S. degree in Computer Science from UESTC, and worked as engineer at southwest regional network center of CERNET.
12:25-12:30 Session Wrap
Up & Q&A
14:00-15:30
(90min) W-LAN roaming issues (Chair Hideaki Sone)
14:00-14:20 Advances in
eduroam authentication and authorisation: RadSec and DAMe
Stefan Winter [remote](RESTENA)
Abstract: The talk presents recent advances in the European eduroam
infrastructure. RadSec is a reliable, secure transport profile for the
RADIUS protocol to enhance the authentication process. DAMe is a
middleware project that will augment the RADIUS authentication decision
with user attributes fetched from an arbitrary AAI to determine the
user's privilege level.
Biography: Stefan Winter is research and development engineer at
RESTENA, the Luxembourg Research Network. He joined RESTENA and the GN2
JRA5 project in November 2004 and is work item leader for roaming in
JRA5 since January 2007.
14:20-14:40 KT's Unified Authentication System

Yasuo Okabe, (Kyoto Univ)
15:00-15:20 Fast
Authentication for Secure Wireless Services
FUJIKAWA Kenji, MANO, MORIOKA, (ROOT Inc.)
Abstract: We design and implement a fast authentication system with
robust security on wireless accesses, for the purpose of providing
wireless Internet services. We propose a fast
authentication system that realizes authentication of wireless
terminals, session-key exchange, authentication of base stations and
retrieval of network information, just by exchanging one round-trip
message. We implemented our proposed system using IEEE802.11b
as
a wireless access technology.
