Bot Computing using the Power of Wiki CollaborationTakashi Yamanoue
Bot computing using the power of Wiki collaboration and an experimental implementation of the bot running environment are discussed. While botnets are usually created for malicious purposes, the bot computing in this study aims to use bots for beneficial purposes. The massively parallel and persistence features of a botnet can enhance its computing power and high availability for beneficial computing. Bot computing can also enhance people’s collaboration by introducing dynamic Web pages to previously static Wiki networks. Parallel dynamic programming for solving a minimal path problem is shown as an example. Resources such as the number of bots and the number of web pages were proportional to the number of nodes, and the time to solve the minimal path problem was proportional to the number of arcs of the minimal path.

A Botnet Detecting Infrastructure Using a Beneficial BotnetTakashi Yamanoue
A beneficial botnet, which tries to cope with technology of malicious botnets such as peer to peer (P2P) networking and Domain Generation Algorithm (DGA), is discussed. In order to cope with such botnets’ technology, we are developing a beneficial botnet as an anti-bot measure, using our previous beneficial bot. The beneficial botnet is a group of beneficial bots. The P2P communication of malicious botnet is hard to detect by a single Intrusion Detection System (IDS). Our beneficial botnet has the ability to detect P2P communication, using collaboration of our beneficial bots. The beneficial bot could detect communication of the pseudo botnet which mimics malicious botnet communication. Our beneficial botnet may also detect communication using DGA. Furthermore, our beneficial botnet has ability to cope with new technology of new botnets, because our beneficial botnet has the ability to evolve, as same as malicious botnets.
