ABSTRACT Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTNs) have the potential to interconnect devices in
regions that current networking technology cannot reach. The idea is that an end-to-end …

The Internet has become essential to all aspects of modern life, and thus the consequences
of network disruption have become increasingly severe. It is widely recognised that the …

This paper presents and analyzes a three-tier architecture for collecting sensor data in
sparse sensor networks. Our approach exploits the presence of mobile entities (called …

Multihop data delivery through vehicular ad hoc networks is complicated by the fact that
vehicular networks are highly mobile and frequently disconnected. To address this issue, we …

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) provide rapidly deployable and self-configuring network
capacity required in many critical applications, eg, battlefields, disaster relief and wide area …

CarTel is a mobile sensor computing system designed to collect, process, deliver, and
visualize data from sensors located on mobile units such as automobiles. A CarTel node is a …

Topology issues have received more and more attentions in Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSN). While WSN applications are normally optimized by the given underlying network …

Advances in microsensor and radio technology enable small but smart sensors to be
deployed for a wide range of environmental monitoring applications. The low-per node cost …

Message delivery in sparse mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is difficult due to the fact that
the network graph is rarely (if ever) connected. A key challenge is to find a route that can …
