A link stream is a sequence of pairs of the form (t,{u, v}), where t∈ N represents a time
instant and u≠ v. Given an integer γ, the γ-edge between vertices u and v, starting at time t …

When applying delay-tolerant networking concepts to communication in mobile ad-hoc
networks formed between mobile users, a general assumption is that users are willing to …

With the advancement of wireless networking technologies and communication
infrastructures, mobile cloud computing has emerged as a pervasive paradigm to execute …

We study the behavior of epidemic routing in a delay tolerant network as a function of node
density. Focusing on the probability of successful delivery to a destination within a deadline …

By analyzing people's contact patterns over time, it is possible to build efficient delay tolerant
networking (DTN) algorithms and derive important data for parameterizing and calibrating …

This chapter looks at the design space for mobile‐device clouds and highlights instances of
systems that fit in the space. A key dimension of the design space turns out to be the stability …

Delay tolerant networks are characterized by the sporadic connectivity between their nodes
and therefore the lack of stable end-to-end paths from source to destination. Since the future …

Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) have attracted considerable attention in recent years. This
kind of network works in communication environments subject to delays and disruptions …

This paper highlights the challenges to be taken into consideration when Bluetooth is used
as a radio technology to capture proximity traces between people. Our study analyzes the …

In a delay tolerant network (DTN), nodes are connected intermittently and the future node
connections are mostly not known. Therefore, effective forwarding based on limited …
