On an IDS Model for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Manet security has a lot of open issues. Due to its character-istics, this kind of network needs preventive and corrective protection. Inthis paper, we focus on corrective protection proposing an anomaly IDSmodel for Manet. The design and development of the IDS are consideredin our 3 main stages: normal behavior construction, anomaly detectionand model update. A parametrical mixture model is used for behav-ior modeling from reference data. The associated Bayesian classi¯cationleads to the detection algorithm. MIB variables are used to provide IDSneeded information. Experiments of DoS and scanner attacks validatingthe model are presented as well.

Ad hoc -reititysprotokollien hyödyntämismahdollisuudet tulevaisuuden taistelukentällä

Tulevaisuuden taistelukenttä tulee asettamaan useita haasteita asevoimille. Joukot liikkuvat enemmän ja nopeammin sekä sijaitsevat hajaantuneemmin taistelualueilla. Tilannetietoa pystytään tuottamaan kehittyneillä järjestelmillä, jolloin niiden siirtämiseen käytettyjen viestijärjestelmien pitää pystyä toimittamaan tätä kasvanutta informaation määrää. Ad hoc ja Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) -verkoilla voidaan siirtää suuria määriä informaatiota tai dataa joukkojen välillä. Verkoissa käytetyt reititysprotokollat määrittävät miten lähetetty tieto liikkuu verkossa. Oikealla reititysprotokollan valinnalla pystytään vaikuttamaan verkon ruuhkautumiseen, tiedon siirtymisen varmuuteen, tiedonsiirtonopeuksiin, kaluston toimintakykyyn sekä siirtotien toimivuuteen. Päätutkimuskysymykseni on: Mitä käyttömahdollisuuksia AD HOC -reititysprotokollilla on tulevaisuuden taistelukentällä? Tutkimusta tukevat alakysymykset: Mitä viestillisiä vaatimuksia tulevaisuuden taistelukenttä voi asettaa MANET-verkolle? Mitä eroja erilaisilla ad hoc -reititysprotokollilla on? Mitä vaikutuksia erilaisilla siirtoteillä on MANET-verkossa? Tutkimukseen käytetty aineisto on kerätty internet- sekä kirjallisuuslähteistä. Lähteisiin sisältyy aihepiirin kuuluvia tutkimuksia, artikkeleita, oppaita ja yritysten tuote-esitelmiä. Johtopäätöksenä voidaan todeta, että taistelukentän muuttujat määrittävät parhaan käytettävän reititysprotokollan. Olennaisena tekijänä on hahmottaa verkkoa käyttävän joukon tarve sekä minkälaista dataa verkossa liikkuu. Erilaiset reititysprotokollat soveltuvat paremmin erilaisille joukoille ja erilaiseen toimintaympäristöön. Reititysprotokollaa valittaessa tulee huomioida käytössä olevat siirtotiet, jotta tiedonsiirtokaistaa ei tuhlata ja tällä tavalla ruuhkauteta verkkoa.

Benchmark of routing protocols regarding green considerations

In Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) the participating nodes have several roles such as sender, receiver and router. Hence there is a lot of energy consumed by the nodes for the normal working of the network since each node has many different roles. Also in MANET the nodes keep moving constantly and this in turn consumes a lot of energy. Since battery capacity of these nodes is limited it fails to fulfil the high demand of energy. The scarcity of energy makes the energy conservation in mobile ad-hoc networks an important concern. There is several research carried out on the energy consumption of mobile ad-hoc networks these days. Some of this research suggests sleep mode, transmission power control, load balancing etc. In this thesis, we are comparing various proposed energy efficient models for some of the ad-hoc protocols. We compare different energy efficient models for Optimised Linked State Algorithm (OLSR) and Ad-hoc On Demand Distance Vector (AODV). The routing protocols are compared for different parameters such as average remaining energy, number of nodes alive, payload data received and performance with different mobility speed. The simulation results helps in benchmarking the various energy efficient routing models for OLSR and AODV protocols. The benchmarking of the routing protocols can be based on many factors but this thesis concentrates on benchmarking the MANET routing protocols mainly based on the energy efficiency and increased network lifetime.

CACHE REPLACEMENT STRATEGIES FOR MOBILE DATA CACHING.

Data caching is an important technique in mobile computing environments for improving data availability and access latencies particularly because these computing environments are characterized by narrow bandwidth wireless links and frequent disconnections. Cache replacement policy plays a vital role to improve the performance in a cached mobile environment, since the amount of data stored in a client cache is small. In this paper we reviewed some of the well known cache replacement policies proposed for mobile data caches. We made a comparison between these policies after classifying them based on the criteria used for evicting documents. In addition, this paper suggests some alternative techniques for cache replacement

Cooperative caching techniques for mobile ad hoc networks

Data caching can remarkably improve the efficiency of information access in a wireless ad hoc network by reducing the access latency and bandwidth usage. The cache placement problem minimizes total data access cost in ad hoc networks with multiple data items. The ad hoc networks are multi hop networks without a central base station and are resource constrained in terms of channel bandwidth and battery power. By data caching the communication cost can be reduced in terms of bandwidth as well as battery energy. As the network node has limited memory the problem of cache placement is a vital issue. This paper attempts to study the existing cooperative caching techniques and their suitability in mobile ad hoc networks.

A Novel Cache Resolution Technique For Cooperative Caching In Wireless Mobile Networks

Cooperative caching is used in mobile ad hoc networks to reduce the latency perceived by the mobile clients while retrieving data and to reduce the traffic load in the network. Caching also increases the availability of data due to server disconnections. The implementation of a cooperative caching technique essentially involves four major design considerations (i) cache placement and resolution, which decides where to place and how to locate the cached data (ii) Cache admission control which decides the data to be cached (iii) Cache replacement which makes the replacement decision when the cache is full and (iv) consistency maintenance, i.e. maintaining consistency between the data in server and cache. In this paper we propose an effective cache resolution technique, which reduces the number of messages flooded in to the network to find the requested data. The experimental results gives a promising result based on the metrics of studies.

Performance improvement of multiple Connections in AODV with the concern of Node bandwidth

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETS) consists of a collection of mobile nodes without having a central coordination. In MANET, node mobility and dynamic topology play an important role in the performance. MANET provide a solution for network connection at anywhere and at any time. The major features of MANET are quick set up, self organization and self maintenance. Routing is a major challenge in MANET due to it’s dynamic topology and high mobility. Several routing algorithms have been developed for routing. This paper studies the AODV protocol and how AODV is performed under multiple connections in the network. Several issues have been identified. The bandwidth is recognized as the prominent factor reducing the performance of the network. This paper gives an improvement of normal AODV for simultaneous multiple connections under the consideration of bandwidth of node.

PEER TO PEER CACHE RESOLUTION MECHANISM FOR MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKS

In this paper we investigate the problem of cache resolution in a mobile peer to peer ad hoc network. In our vision cache resolution should satisfy the following requirements: (i) it should result in low message overhead and (ii) the information should be retrieved with minimum delay. In this paper, we show that these goals can be achieved by splitting the one hop neighbours in to two sets based on the transmission range. The proposed approach reduces the number of messages flooded in to the network to find the requested data. This scheme is fully distributed and comes at very low cost in terms of cache overhead. The experimental results gives a promising result based on the metrics of studies.

Mobile P2Ping: A Super-Peer based Structured P2P System Using a Fleet of City Buses

Recently, researchers have introduced the notion of super-peers to improve signaling efficiency as well as lookup performance of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. In a separate development, recent works on applications of mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) have seen several proposals on utilizing mobile fleets such as city buses to deploy a mobile backbone infrastructure for communication and Internet access in a metropolitan environment. This paper further explores the possibility of deploying P2P applications such as content sharing and distributed computing, over this mobile backbone infrastructure. Specifically, we study how city buses may be deployed as a mobile system of super-peers. We discuss the main motivations behind our proposal, and outline in detail the design of a super-peer based structured P2P system using a fleet of city buses.
