Dynamic Conflict-Free Transmission Scheduling for Sensor Network Queries

Technology Used: Java IEEE 2011 Download IEEE Projects 2011 Basepaper ABSTRACT With the emergence of high data rate sensor network applications, there is an increasing demand for high-performance query services. To meet this challenge, we propose Dynamic Conflict-free Query Scheduling (DCQS), a novel scheduling technique for queries in wireless sensor networks. In contrast to earlier [...]

Approaching Throughput-Optimality in Distributed CSMA Scheduling Algorithms With Collisions

Technology Used: Java IEEE 2011 Download IEEE Projects 2011 Basepaper ABSTRACT It was shown recently that carrier sense multiple access (CSMA)-like distributed algorithms can achieve the maximal throughput in wireless networks (and task processing networks) under certain assumptions. One important but idealized assumption is that the sensing time is negligible, so that there is no [...]

Fast Detection of Mobile Replica Node Attacks in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Sequential Hypothesis Testing

Technology Used: Java IEEE 2011 Download IEEE Projects 2011 Basepaper ABSTRACT Due to the unattended nature of wireless sensor networks, an adversary can capture and compromise sensor nodes, make replicas of them, and then mount a variety of attacks with these replicas. These replica node attacks are dangerous because they allow the attacker to leverage [...]

Dynamics of Malware Spread in Decentralized Peer-to-Peer Networks

Technology Used: Java Dependable and Secure Computing – July-August IEEE 2011 Download IEEE Projects 2011 Basepaper ABSTRACT In this paper, we formulate an analytical model to characterize the spread of malware in decentralized, Gnutella type peer-to-peer (P2P) networks and study the dynamics associated with the spread of malware. Using a compartmental model, we derive the [...]

Privacy-Preserving Updates to Anonymous and Confidential Databases

Technology Used: Java Dependable and Secure Computing, IEEE 2011 Download IEEE Projects 2011 Basepaper ABSTRACT Suppose Alice owns a k-anonymous database and needs to determine whether her database, when inserted with a tuple owned by Bob, is still k-anonymous. Also, suppose that access to the database is strictly controlled, because for example data are used [...]
