The next-generation computer networks are characterized by novel distributed paradigms composed of autonomous and intelligent nodes. Prominent examples of these modern networks are IoT-based health monitoring systems, autonomous vehicles, and smart grids. Their efficiency, scalability and security highly rely on the interconnection of the entities, such as individuals, devices, and software. These coexisting entities can be cooperative, selfish, or […]
