To perform optimizations as the network changes dynamically, distributed network agents rely on information that is dispersed in the network. A data dissemination service for the agents can benefit from data filtering at selected nodes in a data distribution tree. Controlled dissemination filter (CDF) offers an efficient filtering functionality such as sifting, collection, aggregation, and scoping. We defined a number of new objective functions for the data-flow channelization algorithms, and created both centralized and distributed algorithms to optimize filter placement in polynomial time. We also designed an application of the CDF to information flows relevant to the unicast routing control agent (URCA) and showed how the CDF reduces the bandwidth consumed by data dissemination without impairing the URCA decision-making functionalities.

This paper addresses the problem of secure path key establishment in wireless sensor networks that uses the random key pre-distribution technique. Inspired by the recent proxy-based scheme in the work of Ling and Znati (2005) and Li et al. (2005), we introduce a friend-based scheme for establishing pairwise keys securely. We show that the chances of finding friends in a neighbourhood are considerably more than that of finding proxies, leading to lower communication overhead. Further, we prove that the friend-based scheme performs better than the proxy-based scheme both in terms of resilience against node capture as well as in energy consumption for pairwise key establishment, making our scheme more feasible.

Healthcare environment integrate several health care services through a high degree of mutual work, mobility and information access from many devices and artifacts. Sharing of information through a fast and reliable transmission media among the services will have a significant impact. The rapid developments in mobile communication technologies and new generations of mobile devices allow users access to stored data even when they travel. This capability has elicited emergency medical data transmission over cellular network. In this paper, we have proposed a message framework for emergency medical data transmission and an agent based implementation mechanism. The HL7 messaging format, a standard adopted for medical data transmission is discussed. The messaging mechanism is used in AMMA; an agent based mobile middleware architecture for reliable transmission of patient data from the ambulance to the hospital over code division multiple access (CDMA) cellular network.

Application-level filters, such as e-mail and VoIP spam filters, that analyze dynamic behavior changes are replacing static signature-recognition filters. These application-level filters learn behavior and use that knowledge to filter unwanted requests. Because behavior of a service request's participating entities changes rapidly, filters must adapt quickly by using end user's preferences about receiving that service request message. Many adaptive filters learn from the participating entities' behavior; however, none configure themselves automatically to an end user's changing tolerance levels. Also, filter administrators cannot manually change the threshold for each service request in real time. Traditional adaptive filters fail when administrators must optimize multiple filter thresholds manually and often. Thus, to improve a filter's learning, we must automate its threshold-update process. We propose an automatic threshold-calibration mechanism using Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC) curves that updates the threshold based on an end user's feedback. To demonstrate the mechanism's real-time applicability, we integrated it in a Voice over IP (VoIP) spam filter that analyzes incoming Spam over IP Telephony (SPIT) calls. Using this mechanism, we observed good improvement in the VoIP spam filter's accuracy. Further, computing and updating the optimum threshold in realtime does not impede the filter's temporal performance because we update thresholds after each call's completion. Because we reach an optimum threshold for any initial setting, this mechanism works efficiently when we cannot predict end-user behavior. Furthermore, automatic calibration proves efficient when using multiple threshold values.

The paper proposes a method to estimate the location of nodes in a sensor network. The network has a few nodes whose locations are accurately known. The other nodes estimate their location based on neighborhood relationships gathered by them through message exchanges over a wireless ad hoc network. The paper shows that by incorporating non-neighbor constraints, one can substantially improve the accuracy of location estimation as compared to only utilizing neighbor relationships. The expected location estimation error is analytically derived for a certain regular deployment. For other deployments, empirical evaluation of the proposed scheme shows that the node locations can be estimated accurately without the need for any specialized hardware.

Distributed agreement protocols among a group of application processes are often built upon atomic multicast message delivery guarantees. Issues arise however when agreement protocols are realized in Information Assurance (IA) settings where extreme failure behaviors such as send-omission of processes and message timeliness violations are likely. The issues are compounded by security weaknesses in the communication software that make it easier for intruders to stage attacks. These issues impact the design of agreement protocols, which have hitherto assumed only benign failures such as process crash and network message loss/delay. In this paper, we revisit the distributed agreement problem, taking into account the IA dimension as well. Our study reveals the need for a secure centralized entity to realize the group decision-making and state coordination functions. Two functions are studied: dynamic group membership management to exclude non-cooperating members from the group and security-reinforced communications to enforce mutual anonymity of members. Our paper walks through a state-machine based realization of distributed agreements using secure atomic multicast protocol as an underlying communication substrate. The use of our approach in IA applications is also described.

A wireless network has a handover problem between heterogeneous or homogeneous network entitles. We describe in this paper a handover scenario between a WLAN and a WiBro network and propose a fast and efficient authentication scheme for the handover between a WLAN and a WiBro. In the scheme, a Serving Network(SN) plays a key distribution center role so that the Mobile Node (MN) can be quickly associated to a Target Nerwork(TN) before starting a full authentication scheme where a remote Authentication Center (AC) is involved.

We consider the incentive compatible broadcast (ICB) problem in ad hoc wireless networks with selfish nodes. We design a Bayesian incentive compatible broadcast (BIC-B) protocol to address this problem. VCG mechanism based schemes have been popularly used in the literature to design dominant strategy incentive compatible (DSIC) protocols for ad hoc wireless networks. VCG based mechanisms have two critical limitations: (i) the network is required to be bi-connected, (ii) the resulting protocol is not budget balanced. Our proposed BIC-B protocol overcomes these difficulties. We also prove the optimality of the proposed scheme.

Migration to a converged network has caused service providers to deploy real time applications such as voice over an IP (VoIP) network. From the provider's perspective, the success of such emerging multimedia services over IP networks depend on mechanisms which help understand the network-wide end-to-end performance dynamics. In this work, we present a mechanism to design efficient probes for measuring end-to-end performance impairments such as network delay and loss for a specific service in the provider network. We address two main issues related to deploying network probes: (1) the need for correlating the topology data with the measured values and (2) reducing the amount of probe traffic. We use explicitly routed probe packets to alleviate the need for correlation with topology measurements. We also present a 3.5-approximation algorithm for designing probe-sets which cover all the edges in the network. Further, we explore techniques for using observed performance degradations in a given set of probes to isolate the miscreant-edge which caused the degradations. We state a precise characterization for probe-sets which isolate miscreant edges in the network; this also suggests a natural heuristic for miscreant-edge detection. Simulations on ISP topologies obtained from the RocketFuel project show that our algorithms perform much better than the analytically guaranteed bounds and are near-optimal in practice with respect to probe costs.

A Smart Item in the context of this paper is a non-human entity or section of the real world, augmented with IT functionality to support different kinds of information. Communication and discrimination are mandatory, while additional capabilities like computing, sensing and actuating are optional. Integrating Smart Items into the overall business processes by propagating data and services to these new edges of the IT landscape allows for better enterprise-wide integration, improved performance, scalability, and local decision making. This paper provides examples how under service-oriented architecture aspects a business process can be decomposed and partially propagated to lower layers, taking the full capabilities of Smart Items into consideration.
