Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.
  • Other customers can use the printer u90203-psc3. All printing is subject to a charge to non-University members.

Abstract (eng): Near Field Communication (NFC) is a low-power low-bandwidth short-range wireless communication technology with automatic pairing.
An NFC device such as an NFC-enabled mobile phone, communicates with another NFC device or with a tag by bringing the two devices together, an act known as the touch paradigm.
The most popular of the three NFC operating modes is reader-writer in which the mobile phone receives data from the tag but does not write into it.

The purpose of this project is to research a new usage model for the reader-writer operating mode, where the NFC-enabled mobile phone not only reads from but also writes into the tag, according with instructions dictated by a remote server.
We start by studying the functionality of the MIFARE DESfire EV1 smart card.
We then create a set of requirements for a system capable of remotely updating files on a card application of a DESFire EV1 and devise a remote update protocol that satisfies those requirements.
This protocol is evaluated through a prototype we built as a proof of concept, which in turn is subject to experiments in a cloud provider.

This project demonstrates that it is feasible for a remote server to update the files contained in a card application of a DESFire EV1 via an NFC-enabled mobile phone, and that this can be accomplished in a reliable and secure way.
We analyse the failures that may affect the remote update protocol and provide a solution to those failures leading to a robust protocol.
Its security comes from the use of encrypted communication between server and mobile phone, from the use of the enciphered communication mode of DESFire EV1 between the mobile phone and the smart card, and from the fact that the mobile phone does not have access to the secret keys required to read and update the data stored on the card application.
