We consider random scalar hyperbolic conservation laws (RSCLs) in spatial dimension $d\ge 1$ with bounded random flux functions which are $\mathbb{P}$-a.s. Lipschitz continuous with respect to the state variable, for which there exists a unique random entropy solution (i.e., a measurable mapping from the probability space into $C(0,T;L^1(\mathbb{R}^d))$ with finite second moments). We present a convergence analysis of a Multi-Level ...

Identification of wireless sensor nodes based on the physical characteristics of their radio transmissions can potentially provide additional layer of security in all-wireless multi-hop sensor networks. Reliable identification can be means for detection and/or prevention of wormhole, Sybil and replication attacks, and for complementing cryptographic message authentication protocols. In this paper, we propose an improved method for capturing ...

In this work, we study the security of public WLAN-based positioning systems. Specifically, we investigate the Skyhook positioning system [41], available on PCs and used on a number of mobile platforms, including Apple’s iPod touch and iPhone [1]. We demonstrate that this system is vulnerable to location spoofing and location database manipulation attacks. We further discuss approaches for securing Skyhook and similar WLAN-based positioning ...
