 ===== What is this paper about? =====
+The secrecy amplification protocol provides description how messages with a fresh key material should be propagated inside a target network to provide secure link key to nodes with key currently compromised by an attacker. As wireless networks running on batteries are targeted, not only protocol's success rate (number of newly secured links), but also message overhead (significantly impacting energy consumption) must be considered.
+//A secrecy amplification protocol can be pretty effective: a network with 50-70 % of compromised links can be turned into network with 95+ % secure links for the price of small hundreds of messages (per node) in only tens of seconds.//
 **In this we paper, we:**
-  * gave motivation, why secrecy amplification protocols should be used -- if enough neighbours are available in network and random compromise pattern is assumed, network with only 30 % secure can be turned into network with more then 95 % secure links.

-  * compared protocols wrt message efficiency, number of links they are able to secure and other characteristics
+  * Established upper bound of secrecy amplification protocol success rate for given network.
-  * discussed how hard is to execute secrecy amplification protocol in practice on real node (TelosB, TinyOS)

-  * introduced new class of hybrid secrecy amplification protocols, which are easier to synchronize and provide very good tradeoff between number of secure links (higher the better) and messages transmitted (lower the better)

 creasing number of neighbouring nodes the general effectiveness of protocol grows.
 As can be seen, a strong majority of secure links (> 90%) can be obtained even

-Increase in the number of secured links divided by the number of exchanged messages during the protocol execution (random compromise pattern, 20.3 legal neighbours on average). Node-oriented protocols send significantly more messages with rising network density. This stands especially for 4-party node-oriented protocols, which are the least effective. The best tradeoff shows group-oriented and hybrid protocols.
+//Figure showing increase in the number of secured links per message used during the protocol execution (random compromise pattern, 20.3 legal neighbours on average). The higher value is better - more links are secured per single message. Node-oriented protocols send significantly more messages with rising network density making them less effective per single message. This stands especially for 4-party node-oriented protocols, which are the least effective. The best tradeoff shows group-oriented and hybrid protocols.//
