An Implementation and Performance Evaluation of a Peer-to-Peer Chat SystemEdänge, Simon January 2015 (has links)
Context: Chat applications have been around since the beginning of the modern internet. Today, there are many different chat systems with various communication solutions, but only a few utilize the fully decentralized Peer-to-Peer concept. Objectives: In this report, we want to investigate to see if a fully decentralized P2P concept is a suitable choice for chat applications. In order to investigate, a P2P architecture was selected and a simulation was implemented in Java. The simulation was used to make a performance evaluation in order see if the P2P concept could meet the requirements of a chat application, and to identify problems and difficulties. Methods: Two main methods were used in this thesis. First, a qualitative design method was used to identify and discuss different possibilities of designing a distributed chat application. Second, a performance evaluation was conducted to verify the selected and implemented mechanisms are able to obtain their general performance capabilities and to tune them towards anticipated performance. Results: The simulation proved that a decentralized P2P system can scale and find resources in a network quite efficiently without the need of any centralized service. It also proved to be simpler for the user to use the P2P concept, as no special configurations are needed. However, the selected protocol (Chord) had problems with high rates of churn, which could cause problems in big chat environments. The P2P concept was also shown to be highly complex to implement. Conclusion: P2P technology is a more complex technology, but it gives the host a lower cost in terms of hardware and maintenance. It also makes the system more robust and fault-tolerant. As we have seen in this report, P2P can scale and find other resources efficiently without the need of a centralized service. However, it will consume more power for each user, which makes mobile devices bad peers.

Utveckling av en krypterad chattapplikation : Analysering av användarbehov och säkerhetLundberg, Axel, Jidell, Lukas January 2020 (has links)
Today, it appears that information leaks and security breaches are common occurrences. The authors of this project consider security and privacy to be a very vital part regarding technical concepts, something that is being looked past way too much. The authors have in earlier courses during their studies at Mid Sweden University taken part of studies that shows that the average users want to protect their information, but at the same time, has trouble understanding how products handle said information. This led the authors of this report to develop an encrypted application with a user's privacy and ease of understanding in mind. The user should understand that their information is safe and why it is safe. The purpose of the project was to build a chat application with security of sent messages, minimal data collection and ease of use as top priorities. The goals of the project include together with the principles mentioned earlier that users with an interest should have security information easily available, messages should be cryptographically secure and that replacement of a user’s keys should be an easy process. During the project two iterations of user tests were done to ensure that the application was as easy to use as possible. The results of these tests are used to get insight into users' understanding and interest in information related to message encryption. The results are also used to reach a conclusion to whether the goals of the project have been reached. The results of the user tests point to users not caring a lot about the availability of information about used encryption methods, however the users that had an interest for this found the available information relatively easy to understand. After changes based on the feedback from the first iteration of user tests, most users found the application easy to use and intuitive. To compare security of sent messages comparisons are done with leading applications in encrypted communication, these applications include WhatsApp, Viber and Facebook Messenger. / Idag tycks informationsläckor i olika former ske frekvent med jämna mellanrum. Författarna av detta projekt anser att integritet och säkerhet är två väldigt vitala koncept inom tekniska sammanhang, något som tummas på allt för mycket. Författarna har under tidigare utbildning på Mittuniversitetet tagit del av undersökningar som pekar på att den genomsnittliga användaren vill skydda sin information, men samtidigt, har svårigheter att förstå hur produkterna hanterar nämnd formation. Därför ville författarna utveckla en krypterad tjänst som samtidigt värnar om användarens integritet. Användaren skall förstå att dennes information är i säkra händer, användarens händer. Projektet gick ut på att bygga en chattapplikation med säkerhet av skickade meddelanden, minimalt insamlande av data från användare och användarvänlighet som högsta prioriteter. Projektets mål inkluderar att intresserade användare ska ha säkerhetsinformation tillgänglig, att applikationen ska vara lättanvänd, meddelanden ska vara kryptografiskt säkra och ersättning av en användares nycklar ska vara en simpel process. Under projektets gång gjordes två iterationer av användartester för att se till att applikationen är så användarvänlig som möjligt. Resultaten av användartesterna pekar på att många användare inte är intresserade av att ha tillgänglig information om kryptering men att de användare som hade ett intresse för detta fann den tillgängliga informationen relativt lätt att förstå. Efter ändringar från första iterationen av användartester så fann majoriteten av användare applikationen intuitiv. För att jämföra säkerheten av skickade meddelanden så görs säkerhetsjämförelser med ledande applikationer inom krypterad kommunikation, dessa applikationer inkluderar WhatsApp, Viber och Facebook Messenger.

Web applications using the Google Web Toolkit / Webanwendungen unter Verwendung des Google Web Toolkitsvon Wenckstern, Michael 04 June 2013 (has links) (PDF)
This diploma thesis describes how to create or convert traditional Java programs to desktop-like rich internet applications with the Google Web Toolkit.
The Google Web Toolkit is an open source development environment, which translates Java code to browser and device independent HTML and JavaScript.
Most of the GWT framework parts, including the Java to JavaScript compiler as well as important security issues of websites will be introduced.
The famous Agricola board game will be implemented in the Model-View-Presenter pattern to show that complex user interfaces can be created with the Google Web Toolkit.
The Google Web Toolkit framework will be compared with the JavaServer Faces one to find out which toolkit is the right one for the next web project. / Diese Diplomarbeit beschreibt die Erzeugung desktopähnlicher Anwendungen mit dem Google Web Toolkit und die Umwandlung klassischer Java-Programme in diese.
Das Google Web Toolkit ist eine Open-Source-Entwicklungsumgebung, die Java-Code in browserunabhängiges als auch in geräteübergreifendes HTML und JavaScript übersetzt.
Vorgestellt wird der Großteil des GWT Frameworks inklusive des Java zu JavaScript-Compilers sowie wichtige Sicherheitsaspekte von Internetseiten.
Um zu zeigen, dass auch komplizierte graphische Oberflächen mit dem Google Web Toolkit erzeugt werden können, wird das bekannte Brettspiel Agricola mittels Model-View-Presenter Designmuster implementiert.
Zur Ermittlung der richtigen Technologie für das nächste Webprojekt findet ein Vergleich zwischen dem Google Web Toolkit und JavaServer Faces statt.
