DoS attack-resistant framework for client/server intelligent computing

Abstract

Nowadays, the client/server model is a representative distributed computing model, its most typical use being for web systems. The services provided by web applications are continually being developed to provide higher-level functions, which is creating the danger of Denial-of-Service attacks. We therefore propose a DoS attack-resistant framework using the client-server model. The focal point of this research is load reduction of the servers through hint information sent from clients to servers. We made a script generator that generates server-side and client-side scripts from one common script code. We implemented two client-server systems using the proposed script generator and evaluated the efficiency of the systems developed by the proposed framework. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
