In the past few years, more and more researchers have paid close attention to the emerging
field of delay tolerant networks (DTNs), in which network often partitions and end-to-end …

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 …

With the advancement of smartphones, mobile social networks (MSNs) have emerged
where information can be shared among mobile users via opportunistic peer-to-peer links …

Due to the uncertainty of transmission opportunities between mobile nodes, delay tolerant
networks (DTNs) exploit the opportunistic forwarding mechanism. This mechanism requires …

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) assume that mobile nodes voluntary cooperate in order
to work properly. This cooperation is a cost-intensive activity and some nodes can refuse to …

To cope with the uncertainty of transmission opportunities between mobile nodes, Delay
Tolerant Networks (DTN) routing exploits opportunistic forwarding mechanism. This …

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) are composed of mobile nodes connected by wireless
links without using any pre-existent infrastructure. MANET nodes rely on network …

In greenhouse tomato cultivation, three primary methods of flower pollination exist: insect
pollination, physical pollination by vibrating flowers, and artificial pollination using hormone …

With the pervasiveness of wireless devices, machine-to-machine (M2M) communications or
machine-type-communications (MTC) is emerging to support data transfer among devices …

We propose and analyze a class of trust management protocols for encounter-based routing
in delay tolerant networks (DTNs). The underlying idea is to incorporate trust evaluation in …
