We propose in this paper a protocol, called QITAR, which will secure the ad-hoc routing process while guaranteeing end-to-end QoS requirements in terms of delay or bandwidth constraints. Our approach provides an intrusion tolerant environment and uses and enhances the concept of Trusted Timely Computing Base in order to deduce consistent delay information and verify the bandwidth value pretended by untrusted nodes. QITAR also proposes a rescue procedure that saves the resources and accelerates the route maintenance in case of node mobility. Intrusion tolerance, Ad-hoc Routing, QoS.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
