A Cross-layer Dropping Attack in Video Streaming over Ad Hoc Networks ∗ (2009)

Min Shao, Sencun Zhu, Guohong Cao, Tom La Porta, Prasant Mohapatra

Significant progress has been made to achieve video streaming over wireless ad hoc networks. However, there is not much work on providing security. Is existing security solution good enough for...

Sensor Relocation with Mobile Sensors: Design, Implementation, and Evaluation (2009)

Jie Teng, Tim Bolbrock, Guohong Cao, Tom La Porta

Abstract—Mobile sensors are useful in many environments because they can move to increase the sensing coverage. In this paper, we present a mobile sensor prototype in which the Mica2 sensor node is...

ABSTRACT Optimizing Sensor Movement Planning for Energy Efficiency ∗ (2008)

Guiling Wang, Mary Jane Irwin, Piotr Berman, Haoying Fu, Tom La Porta

Conserving the energy for motion is an important yet notwell-addressed problem in mobile sensor networks. In this paper, we study the problem of optimizing sensor movement for energy efficiency. We...

On supporting distributed collaboration in sensor networks (2008)

Guiling Wang, Wensheng Zhang, Guohong Cao, Tom La Porta

In sensor networks, nodes may malfunction due to the hostile environment. Therefore, dealing with node failure is a very important research issue. In this paper, we study distributed cooperative...

Mobile Multi-Layered IPsec (2008)

Heesook Choi Hui, Hui Song, Guohong Cao, Tom La Porta

To achieve high throughput in wireless networks, smart forwarding and processing of packets in access routers are critical for overcoming the effects of the wireless links. However, these services...

Establishing pair-wise keys in heterogeneous sensor networks (2006)

Patrick Traynor, Heesook Choi, Guohong Cao, Sencun Zhu, Tom La Porta

Abstract — Many applications that make use of sensor networks require secure communication. Because asymmetric-key solutions are difficult to implement in such a resource-constrained environment,...
