Mobile devices like laptops or smartphones are
getting more and more powerful, but still these devices are
mainly used to access services, which are provided by centralized
servers in the Internet. We argue that the full potential of such
mobile devices could be unfold if these devices would provide
services like instant messaging or file transfer themselves in a
peer-to-peer manner. In this paper, we introduce SODESSON,
a middleware which enables easy and secure access to services
that get provided by devices belonging to the user himself and
his friends or colleagues. This novel communication paradigm
of user-centric networking leads to more efficient and secure
communication, since the indirection introduced by servers is
eliminated. Given that we focus on user-centric communication,
we are able to exploit the trust relationships and communication
pattern of a social graph to reach these goals.
