This paper proposes the Middleware for Application Interconnection in Personal Area Networks (MAIPAN), a middleware that provides a uniform computing environment for creating dyna...
We present a security framework for Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs), using identity-based cryptography, to provide authentication, confidentiality, non-repudiation and message...
Abstract. Many ad hoc routing algorithms rely on broadcast flooding for location discovery or, more generally, for secure routing applications. Flooding is a robust algorithm but ...
On a wired network, physical authentication is implicitly provided by access: if a user is able to plug a cable into a network socket, he must have cleared other security checks s...
—We study a new application of threshold-based secret sharing in a distributed online social network (DOSN), where users need a means to back up and recover their private keys in...
