A great variety of systems in nature, society and technology–from the web of sexual contacts
to the Internet, from the nervous system to power grids–can be modeled as graphs of …

Mobile Opportunistic Network (MON) is characterized by intermittent connectivity where
communication largely depends on the mobility pattern of the participating nodes. In MON, a …

The past few years have seen intensive research efforts carried out in some apparently
unrelated areas of dynamic systems–delay-tolerant networks, opportunistic-mobility …

Existing routing algorithms for Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) assume that nodes are
willing to forward packets for others. In the real world, however, most people are socially …

In opportunistic networks, end-to-end paths between two communicating nodes are rarely
available. In such situations, the nodes might still copy and forward messages to nodes that …

Understanding urban human mobility is crucial for epidemic control, urban planning, traffic
forecasting systems and, more recently, various mobile and network applications …

The past decade has seen intensive research efforts on highly dynamic wireless and mobile
networks (variously called delay-tolerant, disruptive-tolerant, challenged, opportunistic, etc) …

We study the dissemination of dynamic content, such as news or traffic information, over a
mobile social network. In this application, mobile users subscribe to a dynamic-content …

Data dissemination is useful for many applications of Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs).
Current data dissemination schemes are generally network-centric ignoring user interests. In …

Despite the increased capabilities of mobile devices, mobile application resource
requirements can often transcend what can be accomplished on a single device. This has …
