The process of finding the finest hotel in
central location is time consuming, information overload
and overwhelming and in some cases poses a security risk
to the client. Some of the more advanced web sites allow
for a search of the destination via a map for example
hotelguidge.com and jamaica.hotels.hu. Booking of hotels
is secured by the standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to
confirm the identity of a website or server, encrypt data
during transmission, and ensure the integrity of
transmitted data. Even with this in place, hackers have
broken the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) by targeting
weaknesses in the MD5 algorithm.
Recently good amount of work been carried in the use
of Intelligent agents towards hotel search on J2ME based
mobile handset which still has some weakness. So taking
the weakness in the current agent based system, smart
software agents been developed that overcomes the
weakness in the previous system In addition to smart
agent based system been developed and published
elsewhere, we here propose to extend the system with the
booking capability that allows the user to book a hotel of
choice where the authenticity of the client may be
determined securely using biometric security and
information transmitted using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
(Server-Gated Cryptography (SGC)) on the internet
which is novel and unique. This will be facilitated on
Android 2.2-enabled mobile phone using JADE-LEAP
Agent development kit.
