  • Chapter # 1 Introduction

    Chapter # 1 Introduction

    Chapter # 1 Introduction Mobile applications (apps) have been gaining rising popularity dueto the advances in mobile technologies and the large increase in the number of mobile users. Consequently, several app distribution platforms, which provide a new way for developing, downloading, and updating software applications in modern mobile devices, have recently emerged. To better understand the download patterns, popularity trends, and development strategies in this rapidly evolving mobile app ecosystem, we systematically monitored and analyzed four popular third-party Android app marketplaces. Our study focuses on measuring, analyzing, and modeling the app popularity distribution, and explores how pricing and revenue strategies affect app popularity and developers’ income. Our results indicate that unlike web and peer-to-peer file sharing workloads, the app popularity distribution deviates from commonly observed Zipf-like models. We verify that these deviations can be mainly attributed to a new download pattern, to which we refer as the clustering effect. We validate the existence of this effect by revealing a strong temporal affinity of user downloads to app categories. Based on these observations, we propose a new formal clustering model for the distribution of app downloads, and demonstrate that it closely fits measured data. Moreover, we observe that paid apps follow a different popularity distribution than free apps, and show how free apps with an ad-based revenue strategy may result in higher financial benefits than paid apps. We believe that this study can be useful to appstore designers for improving content delivery and recommendation systems, as well as to app developers for selecting proper pricing policies to increase their income.

    A Method to Detect Malware Based on Behavior Using Formal Concept Analysis

    2016 International Conference on Mathematical, Computational and Statistical Sciences and Engineering (MCSSE 2016) ISBN: 978-1-60595-396-0 A Method to Detect Malware Based on Behavior Using Formal Concept Analysis Shao-ming CHEN*, Yi-yang WANG and Bin LIANG Guangdong branch of National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team/Coordination Center of China, No. 4 middle road, Tianhe District, Guangzhou, China *Corresponding author Keywords: Malware detection, App’s behavior, Permissions, FCA. Abstract. Malware threats have recently become a real concern. To solve this problem, we propose a new approach in this paper. The method analyzes the apps’ used history and constructs a Formal Concept Lattice based on the permissions which the app is used. The concepts of Formal concept Lattice are used to be compared with the permissions which a new application required before installed. So we can find an optimal concept and identify malwares and inform users about the risk of apps which are about to be installed. An experiment illustrates that our method can effectively identify malicious apps and to protect the user's information security. Introduction Android is one of the most popular platforms for phones today and majority of these devices are unprotected. It is not surprising that the majority malicious mobile attacks are designed for the Android mobile operating system [1]. Malware is a generic term that refers to any code added, changed, or removed from a software system to intentionally cause harm or subvert the system’s intended function. It compromises a system’s security, damages a system or obtains sensitive information without the user’s permission [2].
