Abstract. Ad hoc network is a peer-to-peer grid system. The combination of the Knowledge Grid and ad hoc network could have a great effect on the future interconnection environment...
The current generation of ad hoc networks relies on other nodes in the network for routing information and for routing the packets. These networks are based on the fundamental ass...
Distributed systems generally require their component parts to interact cooperatively, in order for the system as a whole to function effectively. For any given activity, several ...
The mobile agent is a fundamental building block of the mobile computing paradigm. In mobile agent security, oblivious transfer (OT) from a trusted party can be used to protect th...
In this paper we develop a novel probabilistic model of computational trust that explicitly deals with correlated multi-dimensional contracts. Our starting point is to consider an...
