Barter trade improves message delivery in opportunistic networks
In opportunistic networks, selfish nodes can exploit the services provided by other nodes by downloading messages that interest them, but refusing to store and distribute messages for the benefit of other nodes. We propose a mechanism to discourage selfish behavior based on the principles of barter. We develop a game-theoretic model in which we show that the proposed approach indeed stimulates ...
متن کاملOptimizing ad hoc trade in a commercial barter trade exchange
In this paper, we describe the operation of barter trade exchanges by identifying key techniques used by trade brokers to stimulate trade and satisfy member needs, and present algorithms to automate some of these techniques. In particular, we develop algorithms that emulate the practice of trade brokers by matching buyers and sellers in such a way that trade volume is maximized while the balanc...
متن کاملScheduled Message Delivery in Delay-Tolerant Networks
With the proliferation of mobile communications, new kinds of network architectures are being defined over the existing static one. Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTN) come to fill in a gap in the existing networking technology: they provide support for communication between peers when there is no end-to-end path available between them. Message forwarding in DTNs can be handled in many ways. In this ...
متن کاملMessage Delivery in Heterogeneous Disruption-Prone Networks
The vision of a world where users can be connected “anytime, anywhere”, considered futuristic only a decade ago, is now becoming reality. One critical enabling technology for “universal connectivity” is the ability to interconnect different types of networks, ranging from wired, infrastructure-based wireless (e.g., cellular-based networks, wireless mesh networks) to infrastructure-less wireless...
متن کاملProEp Protocol for Message Passing in Opportunistic Networks
Opportunistic networks are one of the most interesting evolutions of MANETs. In opportunistic networks, route connecting to the mobile nodes never exits, mobile nodes communicate with each other when they got opportunity to communicate. Furthermore, nodes are not supposed to possess or acquire any knowledge about the network topology. Routes are built dynamically, while messages are route betwe...
