متن کاملControlling Resource Hogs in Delay-Tolerant Networks
Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) are networks whose nodes have low connectivity and/or unreliable links. Because of these characteristics, DTN nodes use a store-carry-and-forward technique to deliver data through the network. Communication over DTN relies on intermediate nodes sharing their resources and can be abused by resource hogs, i.e. individuals who generate messages at a rate that is much...
