碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊工程學系 === 85 === With the rapid development of the Internet, the demand of thepoint-to-multipoint connection increases. However, most existing groupwareis limited to be used in the local area network. In this thesis, we proposea practical system model for user-level group communication on the Internet.In this system, security is ensured by applying the proposed authenticationprotocol and efficient privilege revocation algorithm based on (m, n)threshold scheme. The group in this system is divided into local subgroupsaccording to the actual environment of the Internet. Many implementationissues have been taken into consideration when designing this system, andthe main application programming interfaces (APIs) have been defined.
