Practicality Analysis of the Self-Healing Group Key Distribution Schemes for Resource-Constricted Wireless Sensor Networks

A number of self-healing group key distribution schemes have been proposed recently, however, though practicality analysis and simulation of the commonly used self-healing group key distribution schemes, we show that almost none of the existing schemes are suitable for large-scale and resource-constricted wireless sensor networks in real-world applications, and it is still an urgent requirement to develop an efficient self-healing group key distribution scheme with robust security, tolerant communication and storage overhead simultaneously for resource-constricted wireless sensor networks.
