Description

RESEARCH QUESTIONS: What lightweight, scalable algorithm can be developed to detect the Sybil nodes in MWSNs? Then, I broke it to more detailed questions as follows:  How many observer nodes would be enough for a wireless sensor network to detect the Sybil attack?  How often should an observer node collect information about neighbouring nodes?  What is a suitable threshold for common neighbours to mark a node as suspicious?  How much overhead would the observation algorithm impose on the ...
