Abstract
This paper presents a new approach for performance evaluation of rekeying algorithms. New system metrics related to rekeying performance are defined: Rekeying Quality of Service and Rekeying Access Control. These metrics are estimated in relation to both group size and group dynamics. A simultor prototype demonstrates the merit of this unified assessment method by means of a comprehensive case study.
