    Efficient And Secure Key Distribution Protocol For Wireless Sensor Networks

    Modern wireless sensor networks have adopted the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. This standard defines the first two layers, the physical and medium access control layers; determines the radio wave used for communication, and defines the 128-bit advanced encryption standard (AES-128) for encrypting and validating transmitted data. However, the standard does not specify how to manage, store, or distribute encryption keys. Many solutions have been proposed to address this problem, but the majority are impractical in resource-constrained devices such as wireless sensor nodes or cause degradation of other metrics. Therefore, we propose an efficient and secure key distribution protocol that is simple, practical, and feasible to implement on resource-constrained wireless sensor nodes. We conduct simulations and hardware implementations to analyze our work and compare it to existing solutions based on different metrics, such as energy consumption, storage overhead, key connectivity, replay attack, man-in-the-middle attack, and resiliency to node capture attack. Our findings show that the proposed protocol is secure and more efficient than other solutions

    An intra-vehicular wireless multimedia sensor network for smartphone-based low-cost advanced driver-assistance systems

    Advanced driver-assistance system(s) (ADAS) are more prevalent in high-end vehicles than in low-end vehicles. Wired solutions of vision sensors in ADAS already exist, but are costly and do not cater for low-end vehicles. General ADAS use wired harnessing for communication; this approach eliminates the need for cable harnessing and, therefore, the practicality of a novel wireless ADAS solution was tested. A low-cost alternative is proposed that extends a smartphone’s sensor perception, using a camera-based wireless sensor network. This paper presents the design of a low-cost ADAS alternative that uses an intra-vehicle wireless sensor network structured by a Wi-Fi Direct topology, using a smartphone as the processing platform. The proposed system makes ADAS features accessible to cheaper vehicles and investigates the possibility of using a wireless network to communicate ADAS information in a intra-vehicle environment. Other ADAS smartphone approaches make use of a smartphone’s onboard sensors; however, this paper shows the application of essential ADAS features developed on the smartphone’s ADAS application, carrying out both lane detection and collision detection on a vehicle by using wireless sensor data. A smartphone’s processing power was harnessed and used as a generic object detector through a convolution neural network, using the sensory network’s video streams. The network’s performance was analysed to ensure that the network could carry out detection in real-time. A low-cost CMOS camera sensor network with a smartphone found an application, using Wi-Fi Direct, to create an intra-vehicle wireless network as a low-cost advanced driver-assistance system.DATA AVAILABLITY STATEMENT : Publicly available datasets were analysed in this study.

    Orientadores: Leandro Aparecido Villas, Edmundo Roberto Mauro MadeiraTese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de ComputaçãoResumo: Devido à atual tendência mundial de urbanização, a sociedade moderna enfrenta, cada vez mais, sérios problemas de mobilidade urbana. Além disso, com o aumento constante do fluxo de tráfego veicular, as atuais soluções existentes para gerenciamento de tráfego se tornaram ineficientes. Com isso, para atender às crescentes necessidades dos sistemas de transporte, é necessário sistemas de transporte inteligentes (ITS). O desenvolvimento de ITS sustentável requer integração e interoperabilidade contínuas com tecnologias emergentes, tais como as redes veiculares (VANETs). As VANETs são consideradas uma tecnologia promissora que provê aplicações críticas de segurança e serviços de entretenimento, consequentemente melhorando a experiência de viagem do motorista e dos passageiros. Esta tese propõe um sistema de gerenciamento de tráfego de veículos sem a necessidade de uma infraestrutura de apoio. Para alcançar o sistema desejado foram necessários propor soluções intermediárias que contribuíram nesta tese. A primeira contribuição reside em uma solução que emprega conhecimento histórico dos padrões de mobilidade dos motoristas para obter uma visão global da situação da rede viária. Diferentemente de outras abordagens que precisam de troca constante de informações entre os veículos e o servidor central, nossa solução utiliza informações espaciais e temporais sobre padrões de mobilidade, além das informações específicas da infraestrutura viária, a fim de identificar congestionamentos no tráfego, permitindo, assim, o planejamento de roteamento de veículos. Como segunda contribuição, foi proposta uma solução distribuída para calcular a intermediação egocêntrica nas VANETs. Por meio da métrica egocêntrica foi proposto um mecanismo inovador de ranqueamento de veículos em redes altamente dinâmicas. As principais vantagens desse mecanismo para aplicações de VANETs são: (i) a redução do consumo de largura de banda e (ii) a superação do problema de topologias altamente dinâmicas. A terceira contribuição é uma solução de planejamento de rotas colaborativo com intuito de melhorar o gerenciamento do tráfego de veículos em cenários urbanos. Como última contribuição, esta tese integra as soluções descritas acima, propondo um sistema eficiente de gerenciamento de tráfego de veículos. As soluções propostas foram amplamente comparadas com outras soluções da literatura em diferentes métricas de avaliação de desempenho. Os resultados mostram que o sistema de gerenciamento de tráfego de veículos proposto é eficiente e escalável, qual pode ser uma boa alternativa para mitigar os problemas de mobilidade urbanaAbstract: Due to the current global trend of urbanization, modern society is facing severe urban mobility problems. In addition, considering the constant increase in vehicular traffic on roads, existing traffic management solutions have become inefficient. In order to assist the increasing needs of transport systems today, there is a need for intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Developing a sustainable ITS requires seamless integration and interoperability with emerging technologies such as vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). VANETs are considered to be a promising technology providing access to critical life-safety applications and infotainment services, consequently improving drivers¿ and passengers¿ on-road experiences. This thesis proposes an infrastructure-less vehicular traffic management system. To achieve such a system, intermediate solutions that contributed to this thesis were proposed. The first contribution lies in a solution that employs historical knowledge of driver mobility patterns to gain an overall view of the road network situation. Unlike other approaches that need constant information exchange between vehicles and the central server, our solution uses space and temporal information about mobility patterns, as well as road infrastructure information, in order to identify traffic congestion, thus allowing for vehicle routing planning. Secondly, a distributed solution to calculate egocentric betweenness in VANETs was proposed. Through the egocentric metric, an innovative vehicle ranking mechanism in highly dynamic networks was proposed. The main advantages of this mechanism for VANETs applications are (i) reduced bandwidth consumption and (ii) overcoming the problem of highly dynamic topologies. The third contribution is a collaborative route planning solution designed to improve vehicle traffic management in urban settings. As the last contribution, this thesis integrates the solutions described above, proposing an efficient vehicle traffic management system. The proposed solutions were widely compared with other literature solutions on different performance evaluation metrics. The evaluation results show that the proposed vehicle traffic management system is efficient, scalable, and cost-effective, which may be a good alternative to mitigate urban mobility problemsDoutoradoCiência da ComputaçãoDoutor em Ciência da Computação2015/25588-6FAPES

    The Largest Unethical Medical Experiment in Human History

    This monograph describes the largest unethical medical experiment in human history: the implementation and operation of non-ionizing non-visible EMF radiation (hereafter called wireless radiation) infrastructure for communications, surveillance, weaponry, and other applications. It is unethical because it violates the key ethical medical experiment requirement for “informed consent” by the overwhelming majority of the participants. The monograph provides background on unethical medical research/experimentation, and frames the implementation of wireless radiation within that context. The monograph then identifies a wide spectrum of adverse effects of wireless radiation as reported in the premier biomedical literature for over seven decades. Even though many of these reported adverse effects are extremely severe, the true extent of their severity has been grossly underestimated. Most of the reported laboratory experiments that produced these effects are not reflective of the real-life environment in which wireless radiation operates. Many experiments do not include pulsing and modulation of the carrier signal, and most do not account for synergistic effects of other toxic stimuli acting in concert with the wireless radiation. These two additions greatly exacerbate the severity of the adverse effects from wireless radiation, and their neglect in current (and past) experimentation results in substantial under-estimation of the breadth and severity of adverse effects to be expected in a real-life situation. This lack of credible safety testing, combined with depriving the public of the opportunity to provide informed consent, contextualizes the wireless radiation infrastructure operation as an unethical medical experiment
