Abstract: Many applications of wireless ad hoc networks such as wireless sensor networks and tactical mobile ad hoc networks require support of secure services. Such security requirements, however, also bring in network performance degradation in terms of throughput and delay. In this talk, the speaker will talk about the related issues on how security requirements would impact the network performance for large-scale wireless ad hoc networks.
