    MRPL++: Smarter-HOP for optimizing mobility in RPL
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016) Anand, M.C.R.; Tahiliani, M.P.
    Routing Protocol for Low power and lossy networks (RPL) is a proactive algorithm for Low-power and Lossy Networks (LLNs). Recent growth in Internet of Things (IoT) applications has made proactive handling of mobility apparent. While RPL does not tackle mobility, mRPL addresses it by adopting a proactive Hand-Off strategy. Since this strategy follows a greedy approach to select the next hop, a best route may not be always chosen. This paper proposes mRPL++, an extension of mRPL, to ensure best route selection in mobile scenarios. We have implemented mRPL++ in the Contiki 6LoWPAN/RPL stack and validated it through extensive simulations. © 2016 IEEE.

    TmRPL++: Trust based smarter-HOP for optimized mobility in RPL
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Anand, M.C.R.; Tahiliani, M.P.
    Ensuring security in routing protocols designed for Internet of Things (IoT) is more challenging owing to the fact that devices are resource constrained. The need for lightweight security mechanisms is apparent because cryptography based mechanisms have intense computation requirements. Although Routing Protocol for Low power and lossy networks (RPL) inherently comprises a few security mechanisms, it has been shown that those mechanisms are fragile, and additional measures are required to strengthen its security. In this paper, we propose a lightweight trust based security algorithm for RPL, called TmRPL++, to prevent the consequences of routing attacks. TmRPL++ has been implemented and integrated in the Contiki 6LoWPAN/RPL stack, and its functionality has been verified through extensive simulations. © 2016 IEEE.
