This document presents a research agenda in the area of communication systems. It is meant to be the proposal of the Communication Systems Division of EPFL and its Consortium to the National Center of Competence in Research (NCCR) of the Swiss National Fun ...
NOVELTY - Secret data is generated in one terminal or user equipment. Secret or hash value of secret is displayed on display terminal (11) or user equipment and is entered on input element of other terminal or user equipment. Shared secret data is used to ...
Naouel Ben Salem, Levente Buttyan, Jean-Pierre Hubaux and Markus Jakobsson abstract: In multi-hop cellular networks, the existence of a communication link between the mobile station and the base station is not required: a mobile station that has no direct ...
Publish/subscribe (pub/sub) is considered a valuable middleware architecture that proliferates loose coupling and leverages reconfigurability and evolution. Up to now, existing pub/sub middleware was optimized for static systems where users as well as the ...
The main topic of this thesis is related to the state of the art in designing cryptographic primitives from a hardware point of view. A special emphasis is dedicated to low-power/low-energy CMOS design. A set of solutions is proposed including an LFSR base ...
With the convergence of internet and wireless communications, a plethora of new services will originate. A natural application for cellular radio networks is that of radiolocation, in which the mobile unit can be positioned based on the signals received at ...
We propose a straightforward technique to provide peer-to-peer security in mobile networks. We show that far from being a hurdle, mobility can be exploited to set up security associations among users. We leverage on the temporary vicinity of users, during ...
In multi-hop cellular networks, data packets have to be relayed hop by hop from a given mobile station to a base station and vice-versa. This means that the mobile stations must accept to forward information for the benefit of other stations. In this paper ...
In 1984, C.H. Bennet and G. Brassard proposed a new protocol aimed to solve the problem of symmetric cryptographic key exchange. This protocol was called BB84 after the name of its authors. While a traditional method would rely on public key cryptography ( ...
We introduce a model that allows of anonymous yet accountable service usage in mobile communication systems. This model is based on the introduction of a new business role, called the customer care agency, and a ticket based mechanism for service access. W ...
