Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) are a kind of wireless mobile network which may lack continuous network connectivity. Multicast supports the distribution of data to a group of users, a service needed for many potential DTNs applications. While multicasting in the Internet and mobile ad hoc networks has been studied extensively, due to the unique characteristic of frequent partitioning in DTNs, multicasting...
The development of modern communication technologies fosters human networks (HUNETs)-an information dissemination platform comprised of human-carried wireless-enabled devices. These networks are promising applications of delay tolerant networks (DTNs). However, existing DTN routing protocols do not address unique problems in HUNETs and are unable to utilize the benefits of human mobility. In this...
Conventional routing algorithms in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), i.e., multi-hop forwarding, assume the existence of contemporaneous source-destination paths and are not scalable to large networks. On the other hand, in delay tolerant networks (DTNs), routing protocols use the mobility- assisted, store-carry-forward paradigm which allows delivery among disconnected network components. Adaptive...
