Abstract. A group key agreement protocol allows a set of users, communicating over a public network, to agree on a private session key. Most of the schemes proposed so far require ...
Design of protocols for mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) is generally tricky compared to wired networks, because on the one hand the increased communication constraints given by th...
Secure multicast represents the core component of many web and multimedia applications such as pay-TV, teleconferencing, real-time distribution of stock market price and etc. The ...
We present an efficient authenticated and fault-tolerant protocol (AFTD) for tree-based key agreement. Our approach is driven by the insight that when a Diffie-Hellman blinded key ...
In this paper we propose an efficient key agreement protocol suite for heterogeneous mobile ad-hoc groups, whose members use mobile devices with different performance limitations...
