Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface, where the steady increase in oceanic activities has
promoted the need for reliable maritime communication technologies. The existing maritime …

Communication networks, whether they are wired or wireless, have traditionally been
assumed to be connected at least most of the time. However, emerging applications such as …

Studies on the propagation of malware in mobile networks have revealed that the spread of
malware can be highly inhomogeneous. Platform diversity, contact list utilization by the …

The maritime communication network is assembled by emergent network technologies.
However, the adverse maritime environment impedes the efficiency of resources allocation …

Epidemic models based on nonlinear differential equations have been extensively applied
in a variety of systems as diverse as infectious outbreaks, marketing, diffusion of beliefs, etc …

In this paper, we consider roadside infrastructure-to-roadside infrastructure communications
in a vehicular ad hoc network. A remote roadside unit (RSU), which does not have …

In this work, we investigate the use of epidemic routing in energy constrained Delay Tolerant
Networks (DTNs). In DTNs, connected paths between source and destination rarely …

In this work, we investigate the use of epidemic routing in energy constrained delay tolerant
networks (DTNs). In epidemic routing, messages are relayed by intermediate nodes at …

Owing to the uncertainty of transmission opportunities between mobile nodes, the routing in
delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) exploits the mechanism of opportunistic forwarding. Energy …

Wireless Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are designed for intermittently connected wireless
nodes to communicate with each other. In a DTN, messages are copied, stored and …
