Simulation is one of the most powerful tools we have for evaluating the performance of Opportunistic Networks. In this survey, we focus on available tools and models, compare their performance and precision and experimentally show the…

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 systems involve terrestrial, aerial, and…

In this paper, we explore the formation of network relationships among disaster relief agencies during the process of responding to an unexpected event. The relationship is investigated through variables derived from the policy network…

This study aims to optimise the "spray and wait" protocol in delay tolerant networks (DTNs) to improve the performance of information transmission in emergency situations, especially in car accident scenarios. Due to the intermittent…

The speed of response by search and rescue teams at sea is of vital importance, as survival may depend on it. Recent technological advancements have led to the development of more efficient systems for locating individuals involved in a…

Most modern communication networks include fast rerouting mechanisms, implemented entirely in the data plane, to quickly recover connectivity after link failures. By relying on local failure information only, these data plane mechanisms…

Making decisions about the structure of a future military fleet is a challenging task. Several issues need to be considered such as the existence of multiple competing objectives and the complexity of the operating environment. A particular…

Tsunami disasters pose a serious and recurring threat to coastal and island communities. When a large earthquake occurs, people are forced to make evacuation decisions under extreme time pressure, often at the same time as the communication…

This article explores the use of network-connected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications as a compelling solution to achieve high-rate information transmission and support ultra-reliable UAV remote command and control. We first…

Multi-robot target tracking finds extensive applications in different scenarios, such as environmental surveillance and wildfire management, which require the robustness of the practical deployment of multi-robot systems in uncertain and…

Actions taken immediately following a life-threatening personal health incident are critical for the survival of the sufferer. The timely arrival of specialist ambulance crew in particular often makes the difference between life and death.…

Providing first aid and other supplies (e.g., epi-pens, medical supplies, dry food, water) during and after a disaster is always challenging. The complexity of these operations increases when the transportation, power, and communications…

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…

Development of routing algorithms is of clear importance as the volume of Internet traffic continues to increase. In this survey, there is much research into how Machine Learning techniques can be employed to improve the performance and…

In contrast to terrestrial wireless networks, dynamic Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks are susceptible to unexpected link failures arising from UAV breakdowns or the depletion of its batteries. Drastic user rate fluctuations and sum…

This paper aims to propose a system for automatically forming ad hoc networks using mobile phones and battery-powered wireless routers for emergency situations. The system also provides functions to send emergency messages and identify the…

In the fields of disaster rescue and communication in extreme environments, Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) has become an important technology due to its "store-carry-forward" mechanism. Selecting the appropriate routing strategy is of crucial…

Opportunistic networks (OppNets) are modern types of intermittently connected networks in which mobile users communicate with each other via their short-range devices to share data among interested observers. In this setting, humans are the…

A new channel coding approach was proposed in [1] for random multiple access communication over the discrete-time memoryless channel. The coding approach allows users to choose their communication rates independently without sharing the…

The routing algorithms for parallel computers, on-chip networks, multi-core processors, and multiprocessors system-on-chip (MP-SoCs) exhibit router failures must be able to handle interconnect router failures that render a symmetrical mesh…
