MiNTm: An Autonomous Mobile Wireless Experimentation Platform

Overview Limited fidelity of software-based wireless network simulations has prompted many researchers to build testbeds for developing and evaluating their wireless protocols and mobile applications. Since most testbeds are tailored to the needs of specific research projects, they cannot be easily reused for other research projects that may have different requirements on physical topology, radio channel characteristics or mobility pattern. This paper describes the design, implementation and evaluation of MiNT-m, an experimentation platform devised specifically to support arbitrary experiments for mobile multi-hop wireless network protocols.

Robot guard dog invented to police Wi-Fi networks

Currently, Holman said, the robot can sniff out passwords sent through protocols such as Telnet and POP, the post office protocol used for email. It uses one 802.11b card to eavesdrop on a wireless network and a second card as a control channel to...

Six month-old Windows flaw could mean MSBlast 2

The widespread use of ASN.1 has led many security researchers to label it a possible "monoculture" - a population so homogeneous that a single threat could destroy it. However, developers of tools for creating network protocols and software from...

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.
