In this paper, we propose a Self-Interest-Driven (SID) incentive scheme to stimulate cooperation among selfish nodes for ad dissemination in autonomous mobile social networks. As a key innovation of SID, we introduce “virtual checks” to eliminate the needs of accurate knowledge about whom and how many credits ad provider should pay. A virtual check is included in each ad packet. When an intended receiver...
This work centers on data dissemination in delay-tolerant mobile networks, where data fall into a range of interest types and each node may have one or multiple interests. The goal is to deliver data messages from sources to nodes with corresponding interests. We consider selfish nodes with rational behavior, and propose a credit-based incentive scheme to promote nodal collaboration. The key challenge...
This paper focuses on the Participatory Sensing Network (PSN) that consists of selfish participants stimulated by certain reward programs. We propose a bargain-based mechanism to encourage cooperative message trading among the selfish nodes to maximize their rewards. We state the necessary condition for feasible message transactions in a theorem. We model message transaction as a two-person cooperative...
