This paper provides a tutorial on mobility-aware performance analysis of cellular networks
considering both the spatially random [where base stations (BSs) are deployed according to …

We study data transfer opportunities between wireless devices carried by humans. We
observe that the distribution of the intercontact time (the time gap separating two contacts …

Understanding human mobility patterns is crucial to fields such as urban mobility and mobile
network planning. For this purpose, we make use of large-scale datasets recording …

Pocket Switched Networks (PSN) make use of both human mobility and local/global
connectivity in order to transfer data between mobile users' devices. This falls under the …

In opportunistic networks, end-to-end paths between two communicating nodes are rarely
available. In such situations, the nodes might still copy and forward messages to nodes that …

Understanding user mobility is critical for simulations of mobile devices in a wireless
network, but current mobility models often do not reflect real user movements. In this paper …

Abstract movement models, such as Random Waypoint, do not capture reliably the
properties of movement in the real life scenarios. We present and analyse a movement …

Mobile opportunistic networks are characterized by unpredictable mobility, heterogeneity of
contact rates and lack of global information. Successful delivery of messages at low costs …

We define an opportunistic network as one type of challenged networks where network
contacts are intermittent or where link performance is highly variable or extreme. In such a …

Routing in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) with unpredictable node mobility is a challenging
problem because disconnections are prevalent and lack of knowledge about network …
