ABSTRACT

In literature, all research works are about Internet sharing and their related issues. In [1] and [2], sharing of home broadband connections with the public is discussed. In [3], authors proposed P2P architecture for large Wi-Fi sharing systems. In [4], authors investigate the users’ attitudes towards Internet sharing. The main issue with Internet sharing is security, to address this issue; the main target of authors in [5], [6] and [7] is the strengthening of security. In [8], cooperative Wi-Fi-sharing networks are analyzed; where users cooperatively share their resources, such as wireless access points and Internet uplinks. An interesting work is proposed in [9], authors present a Wi-Fi sharing architecture, called Social WiFi, which enables WiFi sharing with online friends from online social networks.
