With the rapid development of marine activities, there has been an increasing number of
Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices on the ocean. This leads to a growing demand for high …

Simulation is one of the most powerful tools we have for evaluating the performance of
opportunistic networks (OppNets). In this paper, we focus on available tools and models …

Delay and disruption tolerant networks (DTNs) transport application data by creating a “store
and forward” network where no infrastructure exists. Although end-to-end connectivity may …

A Space Internet is possible, as long as the delay and disruption challenges imposed by the
space environment are properly tackled. Because these conditions are not well addressed …

Vehicular networks are characterized by a highly dynamic network topology, and disruptive
and intermittent connectivity. In such network environments, a complete path from source to …

Communication networks, whether they are wired or wireless, have traditionally been
assumed to be connected at least most of the time. However, emerging applications such as …

Due to uncertainty in nodal mobility, DTN routing usually employs multi-copy forwarding
schemes. To avoid the cost associated with flooding, much effort has been focused on …

Opportunistic networks, in which nodes opportunistically exploit any pair-wise contact to
identify next hops towards the destination, are one of the most interesting technologies to …

Optimal viewpoint selection is an important task because it considerably influences the
amount of information contained in the 2D projected images of 3D objects, and thus …

Internet of Things is a crucial research empire in the current era which enables a wide
diversity of applications. One of the emerging classes of technology in recent age dominate …
