Clocks have a small in-built error. As the error is unique, each clock can be identified. This
paper explores remote computer identification based on the estimation of clock skew …

The accurate clock skew measurement of remote devices over network connections is
crucial to device fingerprinting and other related applications. Current approaches use the …

The randomness and variability of IP addresses challenge the identity uniqueness of
internet hosts. Accurately identifying internet hosts on the premise of protecting users' …

The ability to count and fingerprint devices (optionally, from a given type) that are in a
network, and potentially behind a NAT is important not only for network management (eg …

Interconnected embedded machines in the Internet of Things (IoT) play a key role for
collecting and managing data from the real environment. These machines adopt Machine-to …

Security in the Internet of Things (IoT) is now considered a priority, and trust in machine-to-
machine (M2M) communications is expected to play a key role. This paper presents a …
