Abstract

Access control is one of the most important issue with ubiquitous networking environment. Traditional access control methods are mainly considering authentication of registered user or device. Therefore, it is troublesome to allow a visitor to use a networked resource in an office, without accessiblity to other resources. We propose a new access control method using frequently changing passwords displayed beside a resource. This method can be implemented without any special hardware like a sensor.
