In this thesis, novel solutions are proposed for key management issues in mobile ad hoc networks. Presented Hierarchical Binary Tree (HBT) based model is distributed, self-organizing, scalable and does not employ online key distribution authority or group manager. Two different group authentication and group key establishment protocols are proposed for...
This dissertation investigates the use of a hardware mechanism called Eager Data Transfer (EDT) for achieving the reduction of communication latency for user-level network protocol. To reach the goal, the dissertation addresses the following research issues. First, the development of a communication system performance evaluation tool called Linux/SimOS is presented....
