Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立清華大學 === 資訊工程學系 === 100 === This thesis proposes EcoSec, a thin security layer for supporting secure access and macroprogramming of wireless sensor networks consisting of ultra-compact, resource-constrained nodes with a gateway. The user names the requested resource in the WSN in the form of a uniform resource identifier (URI). The user must be authenticated first and access rights checked by a trusted authentication mechanism, which sends a signed request back to the user along with the code fragment for access. The gateway checks and rewrites code to enforce access rights and sends the code to the node; the node checks the code signature before execution. This approach is lightweight enough to run on some of the most resource-constrained wireless sensor platforms such as Eco. Moreover, it is sufficiently lightweight that it can be easily integrated with a lightweight macroprogramming and interactive programming environment called EcoCast. Experimental results show that EcoSec in conjunction with EcoCast run with minimal overhead while taking only a few KB of code and data memory.
