Nowadays, wireless networks are witnessing several deployments in various extreme
environments where they suffer from different levels of link disruptions depending on the …

This paper provides an introductory overview of Vehicular Delay-Tolerant Networks. First, an
introduction to Delay-Tolerant Networks and Vehicular Delay-Tolerant Networks is given …

大量具备短距离通信能力的智能设备的出现推动了无线自组网应用的迅速发展.
但在许多实际应用环境中, 节点移动, 网络稀疏或信号衰减等各种原因通常导致形成的网络大 …

Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) are a class of networks characterized by lack of guaranteed
connectivity, typically low frequency of encounters between DTN nodes and long …

The widespread proliferation of handheld devices enables mobile carriers to be connected
at anytime and anywhere. Meanwhile, the mobility patterns of mobile devices strongly …

Because mobile devices only have the limited resource in socially aware networking, some
network nodes are unwilling to sacrifice their resource to forward messages to others for …

Due to the uncertainty of transmission opportunities between mobile nodes, delay tolerant
networks (DTNs) exploit the opportunistic forwarding mechanism. This mechanism requires …

In this paper, we present two forwarding protocols for mobile wireless networks of selfish
individuals. We assume that all the nodes are selfish and show formally that both protocols …

In opportunistic networks, selfish nodes can exploit the services provided by other nodes by
downloading messages that interest them, but refusing to store and distribute messages for …

Delay tolerant networks rely on the mobility of their nodes and sequences of their contacts to
transfer data. Proposed data forwarding mechanisms represent different trade offs between …
