Key distribution is an important issue in wireless sensor network(WSN) design. There are many key distribution schemes in the literature that are designed to maintain an easy and at the same time secure communication among sensor nodes.... Key distribution and key storage are more problematic in the cloud due to the transitory nature of the agents on it. 3, record 1, English, - key%20distribution

Cryptographie quantique [...] la difficulté de l'utilisation de «One Time Pad» [système inviolable] provient de la difficulté de la distribution des clefs. Comme une clef peut être une suite aléatoire de 0 et de 1, le problème est ramené au problème de l'acheminement d'une suite aléatoire de 0 et de 1 entre un émetteur et un récepteur, sans qu'elle puisse être interceptée par l'adversaire. 3, record 1, French, - distribution%20des%20cl%C3%A9s

La mayor ventaja de la criptografía asimétrica es que la distribución de claves es más fácil y segura ya que la clave que se distribuye es la pública manteniéndose la privada para el uso exclusivo del propietario. 2, record 1, Spanish, - distribuci%C3%B3n%20de%20claves

A wireless sensor network(WSN) usually consists of numerous wireless devices deployed in a region of interest, each of which is capable of collecting and processing environmental information and communicating with neighboring devices. The problem of sensor placement becomes non trivial when we consider environmental factors such as terrain elevations. … Following a stepwise [sensor placement] optimization approach, we propose a crowd-out dominance search(CODS), which makes use of terrain information and intersensor relationship information to facilitate the optimization. 1, record 2, English, - crowd%2Dout%20dominance%20search
