Delay tolerant Ad-hoc Networks make use of mobility of relay nodes to compensate for lack of permanent connectivity and thus enable communication between nodes that are out of range of each other. To decrease delivery delay, the information…
In the current Internet, there is no clean way for affected parties to react to poor forwarding performance: when a domain violates its Service Level Agreement (SLA) with a contractual partner, the partner must resort to ad-hoc…
Existing network simulations often rely on simplistic models that send packets at random intervals, failing to capture the critical role of application-level behaviour. This paper presents a statistical approach that extracts and models…
