SECURITY AND PRIVACY FOR NEXT-GENERATION WIRELESS NETWORKS IBD

Sinopsis

This timely book provides broad coverage of securityáand privacy issues in the macro and micro perspective. In macroperspective,áthe system and algorithm fundamentals of next-generationáwireless networks are discussed. In micro-perspective, this book focuses onáthe key secure and privacy techniques in different emerging networks fromáthe interconnection view of human and cyber-physical world. This bookáincludes 7 chapters from prominent internationaláresearchers working in this subject area. This book serves as a usefuláreference for researchers, graduate students, and practitioners seekingásolutions to wireless security and privacy related issuesáRecent advances in wireless communication technologies have enabled theálarge-scale deployment of next-generation wireless networks, and manyáother wireless applications are emerging. The next generation of mobileánetworks continues to transform the way people communicate and accessáinformation. As a matter of fact, next-generation emerging networks areáexploiting their numerous applications in both military and civil fields. Forámost applications, it is important to guarantee high security of theádeployed network in order to defend against attacks from adversaries, asáwell as the privacy intrusion.áThe key target in the development of next-generation wireless networks is to promote theáintegration of the human, cyber, and physical worlds. Previous work ináCyber Physical Systems (CPS) considered the connection between the cyberáworld and the physical world. In the recent studies, human involvement bringsánew channels and initiatives in this interconnection. In this integration process, security and privacyáare critical issues to many wireless network applications, and it is aáparamount concern for the growth of next-generation wireless networks. This is due to the open nature of wireless communication and theáinvolvement of humans. New opportunities forátackling these security and privacy issues in next-generation wirelessánetworks will be achieved by leveraging the properties of interaction among human,ácomputers and things.
