Verifiable Agreement: Limits of Non-repudiation in Mobile Peer-to-Peer Ad Hoc Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce verifiable agreement as a fundamental service for securing mobile peer-to-peer ad hoc networks, and investigate its solvability. Verifiability of a protocol result means that the participants can prove that the protocol reached a particular result to any third party (the verifier) which was not present in the network at the time of the protocol execution.

A Novel Approach Towards Cost Effective Region-Based Group Key Agreement Protocol for Peer - to - Peer Information Sharing in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
Peer-to-peer systems have gained a lot of attention as information sharing systems for the widespread exchange of resources and voluminous information that is easily accessible among thousands of users. However, current peer-to-peer information sharing systems work mostly on wired networks. With the growing number of communication-equipped mobile devices that can self-organize into infrastructu...
متن کاملRouting in Mobile Ad-hoc and Peer-to-Peer Networks A Comparison
The goal of this paper is to make the similarities and differences of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) and Mobile Ad Hoc (MANET) networks clear. Thus we want to show the synergetic potential hidden in these two decentralized and self organizing networks. Peer-to-Peer and mobile ad hoc networks are established on a different basis. Peer-to-Peer is based on an IP network and Mobile Ad Hoc networks are based on...
متن کاملProtocol for peer-to-peer networking in mobile environments
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) as well as mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) follow the same idea of creating a network without the help of central entities. However P2P and MANETs operate on different network layers. A combination of both, creates new services and possibilities, but also faces several problems. Introducing P2P computing in ad-hoc networks without considering the particular requirements of ad...
متن کاملPartitionable Mobile File System over Ad-Hoc Networks
Most peer-to-peer file storage sharing systems work on wired networks. Due to the multi-hop wireless communication nature in ad-hoc networks, the development of mobile ad-hoc network file storage sharing system faces many challenges. In this paper, a hypothetical partitionable mobile file system (PMFS) is proposed. This new PMFS is a distributed file storing/sharing system built on partitionabl...
متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of Peer to Peer Applications in Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks
Peer to Peer (P2P) applications are already very popular in the wired internet environment. They can prove advantageous in vehicular ad-hoc networks as well. However existing P2P applications are not well suited for wireless ad-hoc networks. Therefore it is crucial to better understand the limitations of P2P applications in wireless ad-hoc environment, investigating the reasons for their non op...
