Performance analysis of network based forensic systems for in-line and out-of-line detection and logging. (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Graves, J., Buchanan, W. J., Saliou, L., & Old, L. J. (2006). Performance analysis of network based forensic systems for in-line and out-of-line detection and logging.

Network based forensic investigations often rely on data provided by properly configured network- based devices. The logs from interconnected devices such as routers, servers and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) can yield important information, whi...

Intrusion detection has emerged as an important approach to network, host and application security. Network security includes analysing network packet payload and other inert network packet profiles for intrusive trends; whereas, host security may em...

Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven method for ad-hoc, on-demand routing (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Migas, N., Sinclair, G., & McArtney, K. (2006). Analysis of an agent-based metric-driven method for ad-hoc, on-demand routing. Ad hoc networks, 4(2), 147-167. 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 availability of routes as mobile nodes move around the physical space, and probl...
