Secure and Private Data Aggregation in WSN
Taban, Gelareh - 2008
sensor networks (WSN). Security and privacy are central for many data aggregation applications: (1) entities make decisions … aggregation application has been attacked, then the attack must be handled efficiently; (3) the privacy requirements of the sensor … network must be preserved. The nature of both wireless sensor networks and data aggregation make it particularly challenging …
