Efficient time synchronized one-time password scheme to provide secure wake-up authentication on wireless sensor networks
In this paper we propose Time Synchronized One-Time-Password scheme to
provide secure wake up authentication. The main constraint of wireless sensor
networks is their limited power resource that prevents us from using radio
transmission over the network to transfer the passwords. On the other hand
computation power consumption is insignificant when compared to the costs
associated with the power needed for transmitting the right set of keys. In
addition to prevent adversaries from reading and following the timeline of the
network, we propose to encrypt the tokens using symmetric encryption to prevent
replay attacks.Comment: International Journal Of Advanced Smart Sensor Network Systems

Distributed Hybrid Simulation of the Internet of Things and Smart Territories
This paper deals with the use of hybrid simulation to build and compose
heterogeneous simulation scenarios that can be proficiently exploited to model
and represent the Internet of Things (IoT). Hybrid simulation is a methodology
that combines multiple modalities of modeling/simulation. Complex scenarios are
decomposed into simpler ones, each one being simulated through a specific
simulation strategy. All these simulation building blocks are then synchronized
and coordinated. This simulation methodology is an ideal one to represent IoT
setups, which are usually very demanding, due to the heterogeneity of possible
scenarios arising from the massive deployment of an enormous amount of sensors
and devices. We present a use case concerned with the distributed simulation of
smart territories, a novel view of decentralized geographical spaces that,
thanks to the use of IoT, builds ICT services to manage resources in a way that
is sustainable and not harmful to the environment. Three different simulation
models are combined together, namely, an adaptive agent-based parallel and
distributed simulator, an OMNeT++ based discrete event simulator and a
script-language simulator based on MATLAB. Results from a performance analysis
confirm the viability of using hybrid simulation to model complex IoT
scenarios.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1605.0487
