The existing technology used for LED wristbands does not explore the use of opportunistic delay tolerant network (DTN) routing protocols to disseminate lighting information. This paper multiple trade-offs of different criteria with the…
To provide sustainable digital agro-advisory services to farmers, seamless flow of information from the farmers to the experts/expert systems, and vice versa is required. The query generated by the farmers, which may contain multimedia data…
This report aims to conduct an in-depth comparison of DTN (Delay/Disconnection Tolerant Network) performance and characteristics in the developing country of Barbados versus two major UK cities Nottingham and London. We aim to detect any…
The Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) community has created solid results during the last three decades. One aspect that still requires focus, however, is the simplification of configuring systems participating in DTN communication. In this…
Latency is inherent in almost all real-world networked applications. In this paper, we propose a distributed allocation strategy over multi-agent networks with delayed communications. The state of each agent (or node) represents its share…
School Campus emergency communication systems are vital for safeguarding student safety during sudden disasters such as typhoons, which frequently cause widespread paralysis of communication infrastructure. Traditional Delay-Tolerant…
We deal in this paper with the content forwarding problem in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs). We first formulate the content delivery interaction as a non-cooperative satisfaction game. On one hand, the source node seeks to ensure a delivery…
Opportunistic routing architectures offer a resilient communication paradigm in environments where conventional networks fail due to disrupted infrastructure, dynamic node mobility, and intermittent connectivity conditions that commonly…
Delay/Disruption-Tolerant Network (DTN) protocols typically address sparse intermittently connected networks whereas Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) protocols address the fairly stable and fully connected ones. But many intermediate…
Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) rely on the cooperation of nodes in a network to forward a message from its source to its destination. Most of previous studies on DTNs have focused on the design of routing schemes under the hypothesis that…
Smart cities today can utilize Vehicular Delay Tolerant Networks (VDTN) to collect data from connected-objects in the environment for various delay-tolerant applications. They can take advantage of the available Intelligent Transportation…
Distributed machine learning is becoming increasingly popular for geo-distributed data analytics, facilitating the collaborative analysis of data scattered across data centers in different regions. This paradigm eliminates the need for…
We consider the problem of routing packets across a multi-hop network consisting of multiple sources of traffic and wireless links while ensuring bounded expected delay. Each packet transmission can be overheard by a random subset of…
Rapid urbanization burdens city infrastructure and creates the need for local governments to maximize the usage of resources to serve its citizens. Smart city projects aim to alleviate the urbanization problem by deploying a vast amount of…
The detonation of an improvised nuclear device (IND) in an urban area would cause catastrophic damage, followed by hazardous radioactive fallout. Timely dissemination of radiation data is crucial for evacuation and casualty reduction.…
The contemporary society has become more dependent on telecommunication networks. Novel services and technologies supported by such networks, such as cloud computing or e-Health, hold a vital role in modern day living. Large-scale failures…
A mobile wireless delay-tolerant network (DTN) model is proposed and analyzed, in which infinitely many nodes are initially placed on R^2 according to a uniform Poisson point process (PPP) and subsequently travel, independently of each…
Advances in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) have revolutionized the digital age to a point where animate and inanimate objects can be used as a communication channel. In addition, the ubiquity of mobile phones with increasing…
Prior work on routing in delay tolerant networks (DTNs) has commonly made the assumption that each pair of nodes shares the same inter-contact time distribution as every other pair. The main argument in this paper is that researchers should…
Distributed opportunistic scheduling (DOS) protocols are proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) ad-hoc networks with contention-based medium access. The proposed scheduling protocols distinguish themselves from other existing…
