In first part, we address Energy-Efficient Range Assignment in Heterogeneous Wireless Sensor Networks (HRA) and in second part, we present a survey on security attacks in ad hoc wireless networks. We address the HRA problem by selecting the transmission range for each energy-constraint sensor node such that a multi-hop communication path exists between each sensor' node and a resource-rich supernode while maximum power required is minimized. This is the first work to address this problem. We propose several solutions: an Integer Programming approach, a distributed greedy protocol, and a minimum spanning tree protocol based on clustering. In second part of this thesis, a survey is carried out on security attacks on routing protocols in ad hoc wireless network. We examine and classify major routing attacks and present a comprehensive survey on the state-of-the-art mechanisms and solutions designed to defeat such attacks. | | Subject | : | Applied sciences; Computer science; Electrical engineering; 0984:Computer science; 0544:Electrical engineering | | Added Entry | : | M.
