This survey provides a structured and comprehensive overview of research on security and
privacy in computer and communication networks that use game-theoretic approaches. We …

The application of mathematical analysis to wireless networks has met with limited success,
due to the complexity of mobility and traffic models, coupled with the dynamic topology and …

In this survey, we summarize different modeling and solution concepts of networking games,
as well as a number of different applications in telecommunications that make use of or can …

We introduce a game-theoretic setting for routing in a mobile ad hoc network that consists of
greedy, selfish agents who accept payments for forwarding data for other agents if the …

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) operate on the basic underlying assumption that all
participating nodes fully collaborate in self-organizing functions. However, performing …

Wireless medium access control (MAC) protocols such as IEEE 802.11 use distributed
contention resolution mechanisms for sharing the wireless channel. In this environment …

Selfish hosts in wireless networks that fail to adhere to the MAC protocol may obtain an
unfair share of the channel bandwidth. We present modifications to the IEEE 802.11 backoff …

The advance in wireless technologies makes now viable to start to develop ad hoc networks.
However, without a mechanism that prevents misbehaviors, these networks could result …

In this paper we formulate the prevention of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks in wireless
sensor networks as a repeated game between an intrusion detector and nodes of a sensor …

Routing is the key functionality for directing communication over large networks. Optimal
paths are determined based on routing metrics. In this report, we first develop a taxonomy for …
