In this paper, we present a secure group key management scheme for hierarchical mobile ad-hoc networks. Our approach aims to improve both scalability and survivability of group ke...
Ad hoc groups, such as peer-to-peer (P2P) systems and mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent recent technological advancements. They support low-cost, scalable and fault-tolera...
Abstract—Secure multicast has become an important component of many applications in wireless networks. In this paper, we investigate secure intra and inter group information shar...
We present a specification for a new, localized group membership service that maintains the membership status of adjacent nodes – called neighbors – in a mobile distributed s...
Many network level services such as routing, auto-addressing and, security have been proposed for ad hoc networks. Each has characteristics that may cause it to outperform similar ...
