Despite a growing awareness of security issues in networked computing systems, most development processes used today still do not take security aspects into account. To address th...
Clustering is an important characteristic of most sensor applications. In this paper we define COSMOS, the Cluster-based, heterOgeneouS MOdel for Sensor networks. The model assum...
Mobile ad hoc networks are characterized by multi-hop wireless links, absence of any cellular infrastructure, and frequent host mobility. Design of efficient routing protocols in ...
Hierarchical software components offer interesting characteristics for the development of complex applications. However, supporting the deployment of such applications is difficult...
Modern Internet systems often combine different applications (e.g., DNS, web, and database), span different administrative domains, and function in the context of network mechanis...
