23 May 2006TL;DR: This work characterize splogs by comparing them against au- thentic blogs, and employs a machine learn- ing model that detects splogs with an accuracy of 90%.
Abstract: Weblogs or blogs collectively constitute the Blogosphere, form- ing an influential and interesting subset on the Web. As with most Internet-enabled applications, the ease of content cre- ation and distribution makes the blogosphere spam prone. Spam blogs or splogs are blogs hosting spam posts, created using machine generated or hijacked content for the sole pur- pose of hosting ads or raising the PageRank of target sites. These splogs make up the splogosphere, and are now inun- dating blog search engines and update ping servers. In this work we characterize splogs by comparing them against au- thentic blogs. Our analysis is based on a dataset made pub- licly available by BlogPulse, and employs a machine learn- ing model that detects splogs with an accuracy of 90%. To round off this analysis and to better understand splogs, we also present our study of a popular blog update ping server, and show how they are overwhelmed by pings sent by splogs. This overall study will facilitate finding effective new tech- niques to detect and weed out splogs from the blogosphere.

30 Aug 2013TL;DR: In this article, a heartbeat period determination method and apparatus of a push service in a wireless network is provided. Butler et al. present a push channel with the push server, and determine the heartbeat period using the received ping interval information.
Abstract: A heartbeat period determination method and apparatus of a push service in a wireless network is provided. The heartbeat period determination method for a push service in a terminal of a wireless network includes transmitting a registration request message including terminal information and network information to a registration server, receiving a registration reply message including ping interval information from the registration server, establishing a push channel with the push server, and determining the heartbeat period using the received ping interval information.

6 Mar 2006TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a system where a member can join a distributed collaborative computing environment through a client which pings the server computer through no interaction of the user, and a notifications manager located on the server can retrieve updates available for the member in response to each ping.
Abstract: A community enables user membership in a distributed collaborative computing environment. The members can have access to a repository of resources. Dynamic notifications between client and server can be provided. A member can be logged onto a client which pings the server computer through no interaction of the user. A notifications manager located on the server can retrieve updates available for the member in response to each ping. The notifications manager can look up any changes to the resources that the member has subscribed to. The server can subsequently notify the client of the available updates. The client's user interface can be updated to reflect the relevant changes. A dynamic and granular interaction between the server and the client can be enabled instead of updating the entire portal page. Each ping can carry an id of the member and community, which the server can use to determine the relevant updates.

7 Mar 2011TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a two-phase approach for detecting captive portals, where an initial HTTP ping request is sent from the endpoint captive portal detection application on an end user computing system to an Internet accessible web server.
Abstract: A method and system for detecting captive portals includes a two phase captive portal detection process whereby an initial HTTP ping request is sent from the endpoint captive portal detection application on an end user computing system to an Internet accessible web server. The Internet accessible web server is expected to return an initial response token to the endpoint captive portal detection application in response to the initial HTTP ping request and if the expected initial response token is received, an initial HTTPS query request is then sent together with the returned initial response token that requires server/client mutual authentication. If mutual authentication is accomplished, then it is determined that the user is not in a captive portal. Follow up HTTP ping requests are then periodically generated by the endpoint captive portal detection application and if the responses to the follow up HTTP ping requests do not change, i.e., the token does not change, no new HTTPS query request is sent.
