Descripción: Authentication techniques for a large-scale network are essential for the booming applications of e-commerce and e-business. In this thesis, authentication techniques for a larger-scale network are discussed. In-deep discussions on the independent path technique are presented. An authentication protocol based on path independence is proposed. The Approximation algorithms for solving the bounded independent path problem are introduced. The algorithm implementations are done on two mobile code environments. One is built with Java, and the environment implementation gives a clear picture of how a mobile code environment is built in Java and based its internal security on Java security. The other is a commercial mobile agent platform, Grasshopper . The algorithm implementation on Grasshopper gives a skeleton of using Grasshopper for distributed applications on a large network.
