Denial of service in wireless sensor networks: issues and challenges

Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), composed of a huge number of resource-constrained sensors can be used for a large number of securitysensitive applications. Regardless of the type of application, smooth collection and delivery of data from this type of network is one of the critical requirements. If t...
