Trust models applied to Underwater Sensor Networks
Research Abstract
Identification of Trust models applied to Underwater Sensor Networks in order to strengthen the network when internal attacks or faults accur. The idea behind the research is to collect data related to the behavior of the sensors and, exploiting appropriate mathematical models, process them in order to compute the reliability of a node. The modeling process takes into account the harshess of the underwater environment where one of the main challanges is to estabilish reliable and long-lasting communication links.
