Book Security in Network Coding

Download or read book Security in Network Coding written by Peng Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-26 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers a series of security and privacy issues in network coding, and introduces three concrete mechanisms to address them. These mechanisms leverage traditional cryptographic primitives and anonymous protocols, and are redesigned to fit into the new framework of network coding. These three mechanisms are MacSig, a new message authentication method for network-coded systems; P-Coding, a new encryption scheme to secure network-coding-based transmissions; and ANOC, a new anonymous routing protocol that seamlessly integrates anonymous routing with network coding. Along with these three mechanisms, the authors provide a review of network coding's benefits, applications, and security problems. Also included is a detailed overview of security issues in the field, with an explanation of how the security issues differ from those in traditional settings. While network coding can help improve network performance, the adoption of network coding can be greatly limited unless security and privacy threats are addressed. Designed for researchers and professionals, Security in Network Coding explores major challenges in network coding and offers practical solutions. Advanced-level students studying networking or system security will also find the content valuable.

Book Network Coding

Download or read book Network Coding written by Khaldoun Al Agha and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-12-27 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Network coding, a relatively new area of research, has evolved from the theoretical level to become a tool used to optimize the performance of communication networks – wired, cellular, ad hoc, etc. The idea consists of mixing “packets” of data together when routing them from source to destination. Since network coding increases the network performance, it becomes a tool to enhance the existing protocols and algorithms in a network or for applications such as peer-to-peer and TCP. This book delivers an understanding of network coding and provides a set of studies showing the improvements in security, capacity and performance of fixed and mobile networks. This is increasingly topical as industry is increasingly becoming more reliant upon and applying network coding in multiple applications. Many cases where network coding is used in routing, physical layer, security, flooding, error correction, optimization and relaying are given – all of which are key areas of interest. Network Coding is the ideal resource for university students studying coding, and researchers and practitioners in sectors of all industries where digital communication and its application needs to be correctly understood and implemented.

Book Network Coding for Delay Challenged Environments

Download or read book Network Coding for Delay Challenged Environments written by Daniel Enrique Lucani and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delay is a fundamental problem of data communication and networks, a problem that is not usually addressed in classical coding, information or networking theory. We focus on the general problem of delay challenged networks. This delay challenge may be related to different reasons, for example, 1) large latency, which can affect the performance of the system in delay, throughput or energy efficiency, 2) half-duplex constraints on the nodes, which precludes a node to receive and transmit at the same time, and/or 3) application-level requirements for reliable, fast and efficient dissemination of information. We consider three main problems of study and the role of network coding on solving these problems. The first is related to the problem of reliable communication in time-division duplexing channels, also known as half-duplex channels, in the presence of large latency. In large latency channels, feedback about received packets may lag considerably the transmission of the original packets, limiting the feedback's usefulness. Moreover, the time duplex constraints may entail that receiving feedback may be costly. In this work, we consider tailoring feedback and (network) coding jointly in such settings to reduce the mean delay for successful in order reception of packets. We find that, in certain applications, judicious choices provide results that are close to those that would be obtained with a full-duplex system. The second part of this thesis studies the problem of data dissemination in arbitrary networks. In particular, we study the problem of minimizing the delay incurred in disseminating a finite number of data packets. We show that the optimal solution to the problem can be thought of as a scheduling problem, which is hard to solve. Thus, we consider the use of a greedy linear network coding algorithm that only takes into account the current state of the system to make a decision. The proposed algorithm tries to maximize the impact on the network at each slot, i.e., maximize the number of nodes that will benefit from the coded packet sent by each active transmitter. We show that our scheme is considerably better, in terms of the number of slots to complete transmission, than schemes that choose the node with more information as the transmitter The third part of this work studies the case of underwater acoustic networks as an example of delay challenged networks. We consider the use of network coding under two different lights. First, as a means to obtain a lower bound on the transmission power of multicast connections in underwater networks. Second, to develop practical schemes useful in such networks. Finally, we study upper bounds on the transport capacity of underwater acoustic networks under unicast connections. We show that the amount of information that can be exchanged by each source-destination pair in underwater acoustic networks goes to zero as the number of nodes n goes to infinity. This occurs at least at a rate n-1/Qe-Wo(O(n-k)) where Wo represents the branch zero of the Lambert W function, and a path loss exponent of a. Note that typical values of the path loss exponent are a E [1, 2] for underwater acoustic networks. This is significantly different to the a> 2 of radio wireless applications.

Book Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networks

Download or read book Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networks written by Aloizio Pereira da Silva and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-09-04 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delay- and Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are networks subject to arbitrarily long-lived disruptions in connectivity and therefore cannot guarantee end-to-end connectivity at all times. Consequently DTNs called for novel core networking protocols since most existing Internet protocols rely on the network’s ability to maintain end-to-end communication between participating nodes. This book presents the fundamental principles that underline DTNs. It explains the state-of-the-art on DTNs, their architecture, protocols, and applications. It also explores DTN’s future technological trends and applications. Its main goal is to serve as a reference for researchers and practitioners.

Book Error Correcting Coding and Security for Data Networks

Download or read book Error Correcting Coding and Security for Data Networks written by Grigorii Kabatiansky and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-10-31 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Error correcting coding is often analyzed in terms of its application to the separate levels within the data network in isolation from each other. In this fresh approach, the authors consider the data network as a superchannel (a multi-layered entity) which allows error correcting coding to be evaluated as it is applied to a number of network layers as a whole. By exposing the problems of applying error correcting coding in data networks, and by discussing coding theory and its applications, this original technique shows how to correct errors in the network through joint coding at different network layers. Discusses the problem of reconciling coding applied to different layers using a superchannel approach Includes thorough coverage of all the key codes: linear block codes, Hamming, BCH and Reed-Solomon codes, LDPC codes decoding, as well as convolutional, turbo and iterative coding Considers new areas of application of error correcting codes such as transport coding, code-based cryptosystems and coding for image compression Demonstrates how to use error correcting coding to control such important data characteristics as mean message delay Provides theoretical explanations backed up by numerous real-world examples and practical recommendations Features a companion website containing additional research results including new constructions of LDPC codes, joint error-control coding and synchronization, Reed-Muller codes and their list decoding By progressing from theory through to practical problem solving, this resource contains invaluable advice for researchers, postgraduate students, engineers and computer scientists interested in data communications and applications of coding theory.

Book On the Application of Random Linear Network Coding for Network Security and Diagnosis

Download or read book On the Application of Random Linear Network Coding for Network Security and Diagnosis written by Elias Kehdi and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies show that network coding improves multicast session throughput. In this thesis, we demonstrate how random linear network coding can be incorporated to provide security and network diagnosis for peer-to-peer systems. First, we seek to design a security scheme for network coding architectures which are highly susceptible to jamming attacks. We evaluate Null Keys, a novel and computationally efficient security algorithm, by studying its application in real-world topologies. Null Keys is a cooperative security based on the subspace properties of network coding. We then present a new trace collection protocol that allows operators to diagnose peer-to-peer networks. Existing solutions are not scalable and fail to collect measurements from departed peers. We use progressive random linear network coding to disseminate the traces in the network, from which the server pulls data in a delayed fashion. We leverage the power of progressive encoding to increase block diversity and tolerate block losses.
