Journal Article
Garrigues, C., Migas, N., Buchanan, W., Robles, S., & Borrell, J. (2009)
Protecting mobile agents from external replay attacks. Journal of Systems and Software, 82(2), 197-206. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.2008.05.018
This paper presents a protocol for the protection of mobile agents against external replay attacks. This kind of attacks are performed by malicious platforms when dispatching ...

Ad-hoc routing metrics and applied weighting for QoS support

Conference Proceeding
Migas, N., & Buchanan, W. J. (2008)
Ad-hoc routing metrics and applied weighting for QoS support. In 22nd IEEE International Parallel & Distributed Processing Symposium. , (1-8). https://doi.org/10.1109/IPDPS.2008.4536496
In the vast majority of ad-hoc routing protocols, the hop-counting mechanisms for identifying the optimal route are dominant. However, this approach oversimplifies such a comp...

Ad-hoc wireless networks, which use ad-hoc routing methods may prove a good solution in certain applications, especially where networks have to be constructed where there is n...

Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven for ad-hoc, on-demand routing.

Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Migas, N., Sinclair, G., & McArtney, K. (2006)
Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven for ad-hoc, on-demand routing. Ad hoc networks, 4(2), 146-167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.adhoc.2004.04.009
Ad-hoc networks could bring many benefits over traditional, fixed networks. Unfortunately, they have many difficulties, including the selection of the optimal route, the avail...

Agent-based forensic investigations with an integrated framework.

Conference Proceeding
Buchanan, W. J., Graves, J., Saliou, L., Sebea, A. L. & Migas, N. (2004)
Agent-based forensic investigations with an integrated framework
Forensics investigations can be flawed for many reasons, such as that they can lack any real evidence of an incident. Also, it can be the case that the legal rights of an indi...
