Abstract. The proliferation of group-centric computing and communication motivates the need for mechanisms to provide group access control. Group access control includes mechanisms...
Statistical physics, computer simulation and discrete mathematics are intimately related through the study of shared lattice models. These models lie at the foundation of all thre...
Ad hoc groups, such as peer-to-peer (P2P) systems and mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) represent recent technological advancements. They support low-cost, scalable and fault-tolera...
We consider the problem of secret key distribution in a sensor network with multiple scattered sensor nodes and a mobile device that can be used to bootstrap the network. Our main...
