Random Key Predistribution Schemes for Sensor Networks”,

by Haowen Chan , Adrian Perrig , Dawn Song - IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy, , 2003
"... Abstract Efficient key distribution is the basis for providing secure communication, a necessary requirement for many emerging sensor network applications. Many applications require authentic and secret communication among neighboring sensor nodes. However, establishing keys for secure communicatio ..."

mechanisms, the q-composite random key predistribution scheme and the multi-path key reinforcement scheme, which substantially increases the security of key setup such that an attacker has to compromise many more nodes to achieve a high probability to compromise communication. Second, we propose a new

A public key cryptosystem and a signature scheme based on discrete logarithms

by Taher Elgamal - ADV. IN CRYPTOLOGY, SPRINGER-VERLAG , 1985
"... A new signature scheme is proposed, together with an implementation of the Diffie-Hellman key distribution scheme that achieves a public key cryptosystem. The security of both systems relies on the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms over finite fields. ..."

Measurement of outcome: a proposed scheme

by Barbara Starfield, Barbara Starfield - Milbank Mem Fund Q Health Soc , 1974
"... The need to demonstrate that health care has an influence on health status is increasingly pressing. Such demonstrations require tools of measurement which are unfortunately not available. Development of instruments has been hampered by a lack of consensus on appropriate frames of reference, and the ..."

the population and to the whole spectrum of health problems rather than to specific medical diagnoses would seem desirable. A scheme that is based upon the development of a “profile ” rather than a single “index ” for describing health status is proposed in this paper. The model is a conceptual framework whose

A Pairwise Key Pre-Distribution Scheme for Wireless Sensor Networks

by Wenliang Du, Jing Deng, Yunghsiang S. Han, Pramod K. Varshney, Jonathan Katz, Aram Khalili , 2003
"... this paper, we provide a framework in which to study the security of key pre-distribution schemes, propose a new key pre-distribution scheme which substantially improves the resilience of the network compared to previous schemes, and give an in-depth analysis of our scheme in terms of network resili ..."

Range-Free Localization Schemes for Large Scale Sensor Networks

by Tian He, Chengdu Huang, Brain M. Blum, John A. Stankovic, Tarek Abdelzaher , 2003
"... Wireless Sensor Networks have been proposed for a multitude of location-dependent applications. For such systems, the cost and limitations of hardware on sensing nodes prevent the use of range-based localization schemes that depend on absolute point-to-point distance estimates. Because coarse accura ..."

A Transmission Control Scheme for Media Access in Sensor Networks

by Alec Woo, David E. Culler , 2001
"... We study the problem of media access control in the novel regime of sensor networks, where unique application behavior and tight constraints in computation power, storage, energy resources, and radio technology have shaped this design space to be very different from that found in traditional mobile ..."

computing regime. Media access control in sensor networks must not only be energy efficient but should also allow fair bandwidth allocation to the infrastructure for all nodes in a multihop network. We propose an adaptive rate control mechanism aiming to support these two goals and find that such a scheme

SURF: Speeded Up Robust Features

by Herbert Bay, Tinne Tuytelaars, Luc Van Gool - ECCV
"... Abstract. In this paper, we present a novel scale- and rotation-invariant interest point detector and descriptor, coined SURF (Speeded Up Ro-bust Features). It approximates or even outperforms previously proposed schemes with respect to repeatability, distinctiveness, and robustness, yet can be comp ..."

Predicting Internet Network Distance with Coordinates-Based Approaches

by T. S. Eugene Ng, Hui Zhang - In INFOCOM , 2001
"... In this paper, we propose to use coordinates-based mechanisms in a peer-to-peer architecture to predict Internet network distance (i.e. round-trip propagation and transmission delay) . We study two mechanisms. The first is a previously proposed scheme, called the triangulated heuristic, which is bas ..."

Identity-Based Encryption from the Weil Pairing

The scheme has chosen ciphertext security in the random oracle model assuming an elliptic curve variant of the computational Diffie-Hellman problem. Our system is based on bilinear maps between groups. The Weil pairing on elliptic ..."
