Trust management is an effective technique for dealing with malicious and compromised
nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). It has demonstrated its benefits in various …

The election of a malicious or compromised node as the cluster head is one of the most
significant breaches in cluster-based wireless sensor networks. In light of this, we are …

The main benefit of selecting a suitable node as cluster head (CH) in clustering for wireless
mobile sensor networks (MWSNs) is to prolong the network lifetime. But the safe selection of …

Using a reputation-based trust framework for wireless sensor networks we introduce a
mechanism that prevents the election of compromised or malicious nodes as cluster heads …

The resource efficiency and dependability of a trust system are the most fundamental
requirements for any wireless sensor network (WSN). However, existing trust systems …

Security is one of the major concerns in industrial wireless sensor networks (IWSNs). To
assure the security in clustered IWSNs, this article presents a secure clustering protocol with …

Traditional trust management schemes developed for wired and wireless ad hoc networks
are not well suited for sensor networks due to their higher consumption of resources such as …

An ad-hoc sensor network (ASN) is a group of sensing nodes that transmit data over a
wireless link to a target node, direct or indirect, through a series of nodes. ASN becomes a …

The major challenge faced by wireless sensor networks is security. Because of dynamic and
collaborative nature of sensor networks the connected sensor devices makes the network …

Wireless sensor network (WSN) is a special kind of ad-hoc network consists of battery
powered low cost sensor nodes with limited computation and communication capabilities …
