2. click on the button titled with Settings ,which is the gate to configure the groups of the application
3. click on the tab titled with FireWall Settings , to view the firewall settings

How to configure firewall settings

1. click on the tab FireWall Settings
2. check on checkBox labeled with Reject all calls to reject all calls , and click on the checkBox labeled with exclude to exclude a group of contacts from the call rejection (sure how to create a new group will be discussed later)

Figure 2.1 : Main Menu Form , all calls seem to be rejected

3. Check the checkBox labeled with Reject unknown calls to reject the calls from outside your phone book

Figure 2.2 : Main Menu form , unknown calls seem to be rejected

How to create a new group

1. click on settings button (see figure 1.1) , the Group List form will appear

Figure 3.1 : Group List form , no groups defined yet

2. From the Group List form click on the NewGroup item from the Options menu
3. The Add New Group form will appear .And so, the user can choose the suitable name and suitable call status for the group then click ok

Figure 3.2 : The Add New Group Form , the user choose Friends as the name of the new group and open the call status ComboBox to choose the initialized call status for the group

4. Pressing Ok at the New Group form , Now a new group called Friends is created

Figure 3.3 : Group List form , a group called friends is created and you can see the items of the menu Options

How to change a group call status

1. From the Group List form check the CheckBox beside the group you want to change its call status

Figure 4.1 : Group List form , the CheckBox beside the group Friends is checked

2. click on the soft key Change Status to change the call status to Busy-SMS

Figure 4.2 : Group List form , the call status of the group Friends is changed to Busy-SMS

3. if you repeat the steps 1 & 2 & 3 the call status of the group becomes FastBusy , and if repeat 1 & 2 & 3 steps again the call status return to become Allowed

How to View & Add the contacts to a group

1. From the Form Group List (see figure x) select the name of the group ,you want to Add/View its contacts
2. Select the sub item Contacts from the item View at the Options menu
3. The contacts of the group will be viewed (if exists !)

Figure 4.3 : The group Friends has no members yet

4. choose the item Add Members from the Options menu, to view the list of phone book contacts

Figure 4.4 : The user try to add three contacts at the phone book to be included at the Friends group

5. Check the CheckBox(s) beside the name of the contact(s) you want to add to the group and click ok
6. The chosen contacts will appear at the form supposed to view the contacts

Figure 4.5 : Three contacts added for the group Friends

How to remove a contact from a group

1. From the form supposed to view the group members , select the contact you want to remove it

Figure 5.1 : a member removed from the group friends

2. Select the item Remove Member from the Options menu

Figure 5.2 : a member removed from the group Friends

My Windows Mobile Call-Block (Specification)

What the servies the system can provide for its user

1. Reject all calls
   • exclude a Windows Mobile Call-Block contacts' group OR
   • exclude NO Windows Mobile Call-Block contacts' group
2. Reject unknown calls
3. Enable/ Disable the feature
4. Categorize the contacts into groups and apply a call status of a group
5. The user defined group of contacts can have the following call status
   • Allowed : The feature shall do nothing with the incoming call from contact at a Windows Mobile Call-Block group
   • Busy-SMS : the feature shall reject the call and replay with predefined apologize short message text from contact at a group
   • Fast Busy : the feature shall reject the incoming call only from contact at a Windows Mobile Call-Block group
6. User can add/remove a Windows Mobile Call-Block group according to his criteria
7. User can add contact(s) from the phone book at his/her phone book , The changes on phone book will be reflected back to the feature configuration
   • Remove a contact from the phone book will be removed from the included Windows Mobile Call-Block group at the call block feature
   • change the contact name/mobile phone from the phone book will be removed from the included at a Windows Mobile Call-Block group at the call block feature
8. You can remove any contact from a Windows Mobile Call-Block group any time you wish

My Windows Mobile Call-Block (Overview)

Windows Mobile Call-Block is the system named my graduation project course in My university Jami'at Al-Ulum Al-Tatbiqiya 2006 – 2010 , I got 97 % at this course having an excellence certificate for this achievement.Windows mobile Call-Block was one of Dr.Emad Quaddoura suggested ideas for students graduation projects in 2010 year.I developed my graduation project system using Visual Studio 2008 as IDE (integrated development environment) , using Device Application technology supported by Windows mobile 6 SDK professional edition. My developing language was C#.Net , and I reused a class library written by C++ , called cordel.dll intended for mobile ce application.I reused only a methods from this component.

What is the new in my Windows mobile Call Block

Of course I expected some one to say , your application is already exist .And so, can I know why the need to re invent the wheel .My answer is I added a new features to already exist windows Mobile Call-Block and I added some of the features of Call Firewall ,searching over WWW you can understand what I mean by call firewall (adding call firewall features was after my graduation project course),and the contacts distinguished as a blocked one have different treatment between reject with an apologize short text message (SMS) or just have the busy treatment. My Windows Mobile Call-Block need from its user to categorize the desired contacts into user defined groups , then the user can define the suitable call treatment for each group , Of Course, blocking contact by contact is NOT the block style any more !!!

What about the adds-on Call Firewall features

Of course , searching on WWW you can find the call firewall .But , again I am not the person , who re invent the wheel .Hence , I understood the concept of Call Firewall , deploying some of call firewall concepts in my Windows mobile Call-Block in a useful and practical manner.The adds-on features can help the user to reject all call OR reject unknown calls .In case of reject all calls you can choose the group you want to exclude from the automatic rejecting , it worthies to say I added the Call Firewall adds-on features after the graduation project course.

What is the secrets of my success

1. Dr. Emad always told me "do not give up"
2. posting my questions on MSDN forum , that have the enough care from MSDN Forum members
3. googling my question , their keyword
4. Professional Microsoft Smartphone Programming , Baijian Yang (Author) , Pei Zheng (Author), Lionel M. Ni (Author)

Scripting XO Game

Dear the below is my own implemented XO javascript game , I designed and implemented during the course named internet computing 1 , as a project of this course projects .I took this course at the second year during my studying in Jami'at Al-Ulum Al-Tatbiqiya AMMAN , jordan , with the lecturer Dr.Hadel Ahmed. I implemented my script XO game using javascript tags and functions , and HTML tags. The XO grid is a simple HTML table of 3 X 3 , I mean three rows and three columns , each cell at the table contains an input element of type image The start state to play , that the table cells contains the George W Bush pictures , click on any such picture to display the O picture and give the chance of X picture to be displayed in a random manner. X picture will be displayed in the HTML table in a random cell in the table according to the javascript random method , there is no algorithm to display the X pictures .And so , it is an easy task to win at this game ,Of course I am not very happy of this fact .But, I forced to do that .Due to, the course constraints I have not the enough time to design and implemented an Intelligent algorithm to beat any player ! -do not worry if I implemented such algorithm I will provide an optionality for beginner players- .On the other hand , I am proud with the efforts I spend on this game and on my ability to produce such a nice design and implementation

My Agent Security Scenario : The Discussion

Implementation of Caesar algorithm using Java programming language based on Mobile agent approach
Designed and Implemented by Omar Adnan Butros Isaid with ID 200530158
This system implemented as homework during the course in special topics in faculty computer networks system, semester 20091

1.Preface

The following papers represent the analysis of my implementation of ceaser cipher algorithm using Java language and Agent-oriented approach, after this analysis I enclosed the code of the system

This system consists of four classes :

• Father Aglet
• Encrypt Aglet
• Decrypt Aglet
• Global class

This four classes represents a system implements Caesar cipher algorithm . Caesar cipher is the first recorded substitution encryption algorithm. Caesar cipher is categorized under symmetric cryptography.

Requirements of Symmetric cryptography algorithm are:

• encryption algorithm
• Decryption algorithm
• Secure key

3. System Analysis and Design

3.1 The System Static Structure

I implemented the encryption algorithm in the method encrypt() in the Aglet Encrypt, and decryption algorithm in the method Decrypt() in aglet Decrypt
This Encrypt and Decrypt aglets are supported by the members of the Global class , that all their members can be seen and shared by all aglets in the package .The class Global has an array of characters helps to token clear user name and password into tokens each token is a character. The algorithms of the system (encryption/decryption) algorithms based on conversion the characters to its ASCII code and vice versa. This system is the implementation of Caesar cipher algorithm that has to do with upper case and lower case characters only. The Integer variables (_AT_HOME,_At_REMOTE , _Back_AT_HOME, _STATEs ) control the action of aglet in its method run()

3.2 The System Dynamic Process

The class Father instantiates Encrypt and Decrypt aglets. Encrypt aglet dispatches to the host atp://OMAR-PC:1024 from the home atp://OMAR-PC:4434 .At remote host the aglet can read secret values from the file c:\Secret.txtas clear text.

I mean by the secret information is the user name and the password .each one of them loaded from the file to a separate string. The user name stored in the variable userName and password in password. The string stores in array of characters using java predefined methods that act as preparing step before calling encrypt() method. The method encrypt() move each character three forwarding steps in alphabetical order .Calling the method encrypt() , the elements of the array of characters stored in a string using the global method array_in_string().

Aglet Encrypt Now dispatches back to the home carrying encrypted strings (username, password).The Encrypt passes a message that is tabular synchronous message to the Decrypt aglets.The aglet named Decrypt handle the message using public boolen handleMessage(Messagge) method.
The Aglet Encrypt handling the message successfully get the secret information (username, password) using the method getArg (String value), that called twice. One time to get the user name and store in a usernamedata member and the second to store the password in password data member .each string stored in array of characters for decryption and after decryption the array of characters stored back into the string

Let us summarize the encryption/Decryption steps:

1. user name and password stored in the strings userName and Password
   
2. The class Encrypt load the values from the file c:\Secret.txt


3. The class Decrypt fetish the value from the tabular message sent by the class Encrypt aglet, when return back to the home
4. The userName and Password each one passes in the following steps each in turn
5. Store userName/Password in the global array of characters array_char[]
6. Each character forward/backward according to the method encrypt or Decrypt three steps in alphabetical order
7. After calling encrypt() or Decrypt() the array of characters character by character grouped back into the string “userName” or “Password”

3.3 Relationship Model

1. The Aglets Encrypt/Decrypt instantiated from the same Aglet Father
   
2. Decrypt AgletDecrypt Aglet remains nearly doing nothing till the Message passes from the “Encrypt” aglet
3. both aglets use the same instances of the arrays: int array_int [] and char array_char []
   

4. Role of Aglets

The Aglet Father

1. instantiates the aglets Encrypt and Decrypt
2. Provides the public objects named “encryptProxy” and “decryptProxy” of type AgletProxy Class .And so, the Aglet named Encrypt can send the message from Encrypt Aglet to Decrypt aglet

The Aglet Encrypt

1. Pass over the network to the host atp://OMAR-PC1024
2. At remote host loads the secret information as clear text
3. Encrypt the secret information
4. Return back to the home atp: //OMAR-PC:4434 with encrypted data. At home passes the encrypted information to the aglet “Decrypt”

The Aglet Decrypt

1. Handle the Message from the aglet Decrypt and before only do nothing waits for this message at the home atp://OMAR-PC:4434
2. Decryption of the secret information
The below screen shot represents the arrival of aglet Encrypt to the host atp://OMAR-PC:1024 .where load secret information and encrypt them then return back to home atp://OMAR-PC:4434

The below shot represents the “Encrypt”,returning to home and pass to “Decrypt” that decrypt and display the secret information

My Experience With Mobile Agent

I took the Mobile agent course under advanced topic in Jami'at Al-Ulum Al-Tatbiqiya,with the Dr. Faiz Al-Shroof .This course based on the text book "PROGRAMMING AND DEBLOYING JAVA MOBILE AGENTS" by Danny B.Lang/Misturu Oshima and on the slides prepared by Dr. Faiz Al-Shroof.
I developed my own agents using ASDK (agent software development kit), I installed on my Windows Vista laptop , the instruction to install this framework is given to me by my Schoolmate Othman Adarbh , my developed agents developed on classes and libraries at JSDK (java software development kit) and ASDK (agent software kit), that ASDK added a new classes and libraries based on the Java CLI (command language infrastructure).Being a professional Java SE developer , I did well with this course and I got 88% as a final mark at this course , and I developed an interesting agents scenario all prodded to develop especially the security agent scenario I will discuss later in this blog

About Mobile Agent

The below in this post is my choose from (world wide web) about Aglet and Java mobile Agent to help the reader to understand the further posts and the reference is in the tail of the current post

What is the Mobile Agent

In computer science, a mobile agent is a composition of computer software and data which is able to migrate (move) from one computer to another autonomously and continue its execution on the destination computer.

Definition and overview

A Mobile Agent, namely, is a type of software agent, with the feature of autonomy, social ability, learning, and most importantly, mobility.
More specifically, a mobile agent is a process that can transport its state from one environment to another, with its data intact, and be capable of performing appropriately in the new environment. Mobile agents decide when and where to move. Movement is often evolved from RPC methods. Just as a user directs an Internet browser to "visit" a website (the browser merely downloads a copy of the site or one version of it in the case of dynamic web sites), similarly, a mobile agent accomplishes a move through data duplication. When a mobile agent decides to move, it saves its own state, transports this saved state to the new host, and resumes execution from the saved state.
A mobile agent is a specific form of mobile code. However, in contrast to the Remote evaluation and Code on demand programming paradigms, mobile agents are active in that they can choose to migrate between computers at any time during their execution. This makes them a powerful tool for implementing distributed applications in a computer network.
An open multi-agent systems (MAS) is a system in which agents, that are owned by a variety of stakeholders, continuously enter and leave the system.

Reputation and Trust

The following are general concerns about Trust and Reputation in Mobile Agent research:

1. Source of trust information
   • Direct experience
   • Witness information
   • Role-based rules
   • Third-party references
2. How trust value is calculated
3. Overall trust value

What are the differences between trust and reputation systems?

Trust systems produce a score that reflects the relying party’s subjective view of an entity’s trustworthiness, whereas reputation systems produce an entity’s (public) reputation score as seen by the whole community.

Advantages

Some advantages which mobile agents have over conventional agents:
* Computation bundles - converts computational client/server round trips to relocatable data bundles, reducing network load.
* Parallel processing -asynchronous execution on multiple heterogeneous network hosts
* Dynamic adaptation - actions are dependent on the state of the host environment
* Tolerant to network faults - able to operate without an active connection between client and server
* Flexible maintenance - to change an agent's actions, only the source (rather than the computation hosts) must be updated
One particular advantage for remote deployment of software includes increased portability thereby making system requirements less influential.

What is Aglet

Aglets is a Java based mobile agent platform and library for building mobile agents based applications. An aglet is a Java agent which can autonomously and spontaneously move from one host to another carrying a piece of code with it. It can be programmed to execute at a remote host and show different behaviours at different hosts. Java based security implementations take care of authorised access to local resources at the remote hosts.
Aglets was originally developed by Mitsuru Oshima ("大島 満") and Danny Lange at the IBM Tokyo Research Laboratory. The original name of the project was AWB (Aglets WorkBench) and IBM was responsible for most of the 1.x release. However the project is now hosted at SourceForge.net as an open source project, where it is distributed under the IBM Public License. In the beginning, the SourceForge releases had been only bug-fix ones, but 2.x series(most of which came from open source community only) had better security and thread management. It now includes a log4j based logging system and a few bug-fixes of the older versions.
Aglets is completely written in Java, thus allowing a high portability of both the agents and the platform. Aglets includes both a complete Java mobile agent platform, with a stand-alone server called Tahiti, and a library that allows developers to build mobile agents and to embed the Aglets technology in their applications.
No new releases of Aglets have been made since 2001, although an updated users manual was released in 2004. The future of the project is unclear.
