TL;DR: The FTSP achieves its robustness by utilizing periodic flooding of synchronization messages, and implicit dynamic topology update and comprehensive error compensation including clock skew estimation, which is markedly better than that of the existing RBS and TPSN algorithms.
SPINS: security protocols for sensor networks
TL;DR: A suite of security protocols optimized for sensor networks: SPINS, which includes SNEP and μTESLA and shows that they are practical even on minimal hardware: the performance of the protocol suite easily matches the data rate of the network.
