However, the sensor nodes of WSNs tend to become the target of attackers due to the broadcast communication mode and the unattended deployment nature. Although it can prevent the sensitive data from being compromised, Slice-Mix-AggRegaTe (SMART) needs to exchange messages frequently in a network, which put tremendous overhead on the sensor nodes with limited resources. Faced with these issues, this paper proposes an energy-efficient privacy-preserving data aggregation protocol based on slicing (EPPA) where a novel slicing mode is adopted to reduce the numbers of slices, which can significantly prevent the data from being compromised and decrease the communication overhead. Meanwhile, an enhanced scheme based on EPPA, called multi-function privacy-preserving data aggregation protocol (MPPA), is presented and it supports multiple functions in the process of data aggregation, such as max\/min, count, and mean. The theoretical analysis and the simulation evaluation show that the proposed aggregation protocols demonstrate a better performance in the privacy preserving and the communication efficiency.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13638-020-1643-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,14]],"date-time":"2020-01-14T19:02:41Z","timestamp":1579028561000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Energy-efficient privacy-preserving data aggregation protocols based on slicing"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"2020","author":[{"given":"Xiaowu","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiguo","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaowei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qiang","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Can","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,1,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"1643_CR1","first-page":"271","volume-title":"Proceedings of ICACT\u201909, vol. 1","author":"M.
