Optimistic Tracing in MANET

چکیده
Mobile ad hoc networks are collections of wireless mobile nodes with links that are made or broken in an arbitrary way. They have constrained resources, restricted broadcast range and no fixed infrastructure. For these networks communication is achieved via routes whose nodes relay packets. Several routing algorithms have been proposed in the literature. These focus mainly on efficiency with security relegated to weak adversary models, particularly with regard to fault tolerance in malicious settings. Our goal in this paper is to develop a formal security framework for analyzing fault-tolerant routing in malicious environments. Our simulation framework allows for strong adversary models and preserves fault-tolerance in the universal composability paradigm. We present optimistic tracing protocols and prove their security in this model and show how they can be composed with existing, well-established routing algorithms. To the best of our knowledge, these are the only protocols that guarantee message delivery in a strong adversary model.

REDMAN: An optimistic replication middleware for read-only resources in dense MANETs
The spread of wireless portable devices is pushing towards service provisioning over dense Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs), i.e., limited spatial regions, such as shopping malls and airports, where a high number of mobile peers can autonomously cooperate without a statically deployed network infrastructure. The paper proposes the REDMAN middleware to manage, retrieve, and disseminate replicas o...

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) can be considered as a class of unstructured networks created by a number of autonomous wireless and sensor nodes. The inherent characteristics of such networks have made specific applications, such as multimedia transfer and challenging. Basically, the functionality of a node and very few resources directly affect the delivery of packets which depends on the ...
متن کاملOn the Impact of Radio Propagation Models on MANET Simulation Results
Network simulation tools are frequently used to analyze performance of MANET protocols and applications. They commonly offer only simple radio propagation models that neglect obstacles of a propagation environment. In this paper, we integrate a more accurate radio propagation model into a simulation tool. The model is based on ray tracing and considers geographic data of the simulation area. We...
متن کاملFair tracing based on VSS and blind signature without Trustees
We propose a tracing scheme of e-cash which has not only fair tracing ability but also lower computational complexity for comparisons. Many other protocols allow optimistic fair tracing which means that illegal tracing can be found after tracing and depositing in bank. But in this scheme, illegal tracing done by bank alone is impossible. We propose a marking mechanism based on a variant of an O...
