Today's mobile phones are far from the mere communication devices they were 10 years
ago. Equipped with sophisticated sensors and advanced computing hardware, phones can …

Understanding urban human mobility is crucial for epidemic control, urban planning, traffic
forecasting systems and, more recently, various mobile and network applications …

A range of applications, from predicting the spread of human and electronic viruses to city
planning and resource management in mobile communications, depend on our ability to …

Many DTN routing protocols use a variety of mechanisms, including discovering the meeting
probabilities among nodes, packet replication, and network coding. The primary focus of …

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 …

Location-based social networks have been gaining increasing popularity in recent years. To
increase users' engagement with location-based services, it is important to provide attractive …

Delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) have the potential to connect devices and areas of the world
that are under-served by current networks. A critical challenge for DTNs is determining …
