Ad hoc networks have a great importance in modern scientific and technological usage. Ad hoc network does not need a topology, infrastructure and special management. Security limits its functionality specially in unsecured environment. This work comes to solve this problem by modifying one of the used protocols in ad hoc networks, which is Ad Hoc On-demand Distance Victor(AODV) routing protocol that depends on finding route path just when need to. This modification has done by using some reserved bits from Route Request(RREQ) packet to add security feature by selecting encryption algorithm to...

In this book, we propose service-oriented sensor-actuator networks (SOSANETs) as a new paradigm for building the next generation of customizable, interoperable sensor-actuator networks where nodes expose their capabilities to applications in the form of service profiles. We first introduce a query model and an architecture for SOSANETs. We then present uRACER (Reliable Adaptive serviCe-driven Efficient Routing), a routing protocol suite for SOSANETs. uRACER consists of three routing protocols, namely, SARP (Service- Aware Routing Protocol), CARP (Context-Aware Routing Protocol), and...

The future wireless communication system will be heterogeneous, broadband, and inter-operational, and mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) will be an important component. However, the salient characteristics make the design of MANETs face serious challenges. This book attempts to introduce the design, modeling and the performance analysis of various types of MANET protocols related to dynamic mobility and scalability in the network layer, and the minimization of the data collisions in the MAC layer. The first focus is on the network protocols to reduce the influence of host mobility. A...

Future networks require both bandwidth and Quality of Service (QoS) because of ever-increasing number of Internet users and growing number of real-time applications. Thus, having a QoS-capable all-optical network appears to be the sole approach for transporting the traffic in future networks. Due to its finest granularity, OPS (Optical Packet Switching) can efficiently utilize the huge bandwidth provided by all-optical networking. This book develops a new framework to manage the bandwidth in buffer-less slotted OPS networks suitable for the next generation networks where the QoS must be...

Used to explain complicated economic behavior for decades, game theory is quickly becoming a tool of choice for those serious about optimizing next generation wireless systems. Illustrating how game theory can effectively address a wide range of issues that until now remained unresolved, Game Theory for Wireless Communications and Networking provides a systematic introduction to the application of this powerful and dynamic tool.

This comprehensive technical guide explains game theory basics, architectures, protocols, security, models, open research issues,...

While there are sporadic journal articles on socio-technical networks, there's long been a need for an integrated resource that addresses concrete socio-technical network (STN) design issues from algorithmic and engineering perspectives. Filling this need, Socio-Technical Networks: Science and Engineering Design provides a complete introduction to the fundamentals of one of the hottest research areas across the social sciences, networking, and computer science -- including its definition, historical background, and models. Covering basic STN architecture from a physical/technological...

The two compelling and relevant concepts with wireless networks are seamless mobility and security. Ubiquitous computing is becoming part of human life with the advent of wireless devices and technologies. Of all the wireless networks, IEEE 802.11 networks are getting increasingly popular. The whole idea of mobility and seamless communication in 802.11 infrastructure network can be a near reality, if we were to come up with a mobility management architecture that would help such seamless mobile node movement between access points. One possible mobility management architecture can contain...

The present work is aimed to develop and analyze a novel model for distributed stateful intrusion detection able to scale in order to keep up with the pace of high speed network links. More precisely, in this work we make the following contributions: - We introduce a novel architecture for the distributed matching of stateful network-based signatures. - We present a novel algorithm that allows for the detection of complex, stateful attacks in a distributed fashion. - We provide a precise characterization of the bottlenecks that are inherent to the distributed matching of stateful signatures...

I3E 2001 is the first in a series of conferences on e-commerce, e-business, and- government organised by the three IFIP committees TC6, TC8, and TC11. It provides a forum, where users, engineers, and scientists from academia, industry, and government can present their latest findings in e-commerce, e-business, and- government applications and the underlying technology to support those applications. The conference comprises a main track and mini tracks dedicated to special topics. The papers presented in the main track were rigorously refereed and selected by the International Programme...

This work constitutes the refereed proceedings of the two IAPR International Workshops on Structural and Syntactic Pattern Recognition and on Statistical Techniques in Pattern Recognition, SSPR '98 and SPR '98, held in Sydney, Australia, August 1998.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on High-Performance Computing and Networking, HPCN Europe 1999, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands in April 1999.
The 115 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from a total of close to 200 conference submissions as well as from submissions for various topical workshops. Also included are 40 selected poster presentations. The conference papers are organized in three tracks: end-user applications of HPCN, computational science, and computer science; additionally there are six sections...

Wireless Mesh Networks are emerging as novel networking paradigm capable of supporting application scenarios where quick installation and flexibility are a major requirement. The purpose of this work is to introduce the mesh architecture through wide experimental studies building different type of testbeds. In order to achieve this goal, some performance measurements have been obtained on an experimental WiFi-based mesh testbed. The tests aim at characterizing the suitability of current mesh networking solutions to support multimedia flows. Currently deployed mesh networks use IEEE 802.11...

Worm threats in emergent networks such as P2P and cellular networks have yet received due attention. This book aims at designing automated, real-time, and systematic solutions to defeat worms. For P2P networks, we first propose a partition-based and a CDS-based scheme to contain ultra-fast topological worms. These schemes leverage the underlying P2P overlay and adopted graph-theory to distribute security patches to vulnerable hosts. We then propose a P2P-tailored approach which consists of a download-based and a search-based scheme to combat file-sharing worms. Both schemes internally...

Modern military coalition operations rely on the ability of multiple independently developed networks to function cohesively, allowing information collected by different sources to be transmitted, analyzed, processed, and provided to troops involved in tactical operations. Network Science for Military Coalition Operations: Information Exchange and Interaction presents an advanced view of this delicate and vital operation. However, an understanding of the science behind coalition operations can benefit not just military operations, but any context in the modern world where two independent...
