Abstract
This paper proposes a secure mobile content delivery architecture in an integrated, hybrid network environment. Its design comprises device discovery, asynchronous content delivery, secure access control and virtual file system with dynamic reference mapping mechanisms, which are able to alleviate several inherent limitations in wireless and mobile networks. It thus enables mobile handheld devices to escape from mobility confinement and to transfer media contents in an efficient, energy-saving and secure manner. Our prototype implementation shows that the developed mechanism is feasible and ease of use: it effects the secure ubiquitous content delivery services in hybrid network environments.
