This project investigates efficiency and
security of communication in networks. Research includes how network
topology (e.g., connectivity, symmetry, etc.), information
dissemination (e.g., broadcasting, routing, peer-to-peer, etc.) and
network control (e.g., election, mutual exclusion, etc.) affect the
network performance. Topics investigated include algorithmic
techniques for searching, routing, broadcasting, web design and
mobile agents. Security research is concerned with networked
systems. Topics investigated include distributed firewalls,
intrusion detection, security in routing, impact of security on
network performance as well as new approaches to authentication
management in wireless environments.
