Using directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks can significantly improve network performance. However, the deafness problem greatly limits the network performance. This pa...
Local monitoring is an effective mechanism for the security of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Existing schemes assume the existence of sufficient number of active nodes to carry...
— As the use of sensor networks increases, security in this domain becomes a very real concern. One fundamental aspect of providing confidentiality and authentication is key dis...
This paper introduces a context-aware authorization architecture that is designed to augment existing network security protocols in an Intranet environment. It describes the archi...
: This paper investigates authentication and secure data retrieval issues in Radio-Frequency IDentification (RFID)-aware wireless sensor networks. We propose a network architecture...
