20140096256 | JOINT PERFORMANCE-VULNERABILITY METRIC FRAMEWORK FOR DESIGNING AD HOC ROUTING PROTOCOLS - A system for routing data along a path that is both efficient and secure is provided. A performance and vulnerability routing system selects a path for routing using a joint metric for a link in a network of nodes. The system calculates the joint metric based on a combination of a performance metric and a vulnerability metric of a link. The performance metric for a link indicates the cost of transmitting data over the link, and the vulnerability metric for the link indicates the security of data that is transmitted over the link. The system combines the performance metric and the vulnerability metric to generate the joint metric, which indicates a joint cost of transmitting data. The system then selects paths for transmitting data that tend to minimize the sum of the joint costs of the links along the paths. | 04-03-2014 |
