Embedded End-to-End Wireless Security With ECDH Key Exchange

Overview Sensor networks offer tremendous benefits for the future as they have the potential to make life more convenient and safer. For instance, sensors can be used for climate control to reduce power consumption, for structures such as bridges to monitor the maintenance status, or for company badges to locate employees in order to increase productivity. However, the introduction of such ubiquitous computing to everyday life also raises privacy concerns. This paper presents a public-key cryptography implementation for secure key exchange on low-end wireless devices using elliptic curves.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
