R-P2P: a data centric DTN middleware with interconnected throwboxes
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe R-P2P, a novel system meant to support the search and retrieval of data in a certain location. R-P2P couples opportunistic wireless communications between mobile devices with an interconnected network of throwboxes. The set of throwboxes implements a distributed and localized data storage. Overall, the system integrates in an on-demand, delaytolerant fashion two main network extensions: a query forwarding engine running on top of the opportunistic network and a data retrieval mechanism performed on throwboxes. We detail the building blocks of the proposed system, describing the functionalities and the interactions of the various middleware modules. Finally, we illustrate the current implementation of R-P2P.

Access control in ultra-large-scale systems using a data-centric middleware
The primary characteristic of an Ultra-Large-Scale (ULS) system is ultra-large size on any related dimension. A ULS system is generally considered as a system-of-systems with heterogeneous nodes and autonomous domains. As the size of a system-of-systems grows, and interoperability demand between sub-systems is increased, achieving more scalable and dynamic access control system becomes an im...
متن کاملSocial based throwbox placement schemes for large-scale mobile social delay tolerant networks
Mobile phone sensing is a new paradigm which takes advantage of smart phones to collect and analyze data at large scale but with a low cost. Supporting pervasive communications among mobile devices in such a large-scale mobile social network becomes a key challenge for this new mobile sensing system. One possible solution is allowing packet delivery among mobile devices via opportunistic commun...
متن کاملCase Study on a Community-Centric Mobile Service Environment
This paper discusses and evaluates the design and the implementation of a Community-centric Mobile Service Environment (COMSE), where all services are developed with Web technologies. The service environment is built on a distributed communication platform that is implemented using a DHT-based peer-to-peer (P2P) protocol. The interaction between P2P overlay networks and Web-based services is re...
متن کاملData or index: a trade-off in mobile delay tolerant networks
Acquiring content through mobile networks is a basic and general topic. Mobile nodes have two different ways of obtaining data. The first method is to download data quickly through 3G/4G networks, which is expensive. The second way is to get data from other nodes by means of delay tolerant networks (DTN), which are much cheaper, but are time-consuming. Throwboxes deployed in DTN act as fixed fe...
متن کاملCommunity-centric mobile peer-to-peer services: performance evaluation and user studies
The popularity of social networking services emphasises the importance of user communities. As the next evolutionary step, social networking will evolve towards user communities that are dynamically established according to contextual aspects such as the shared location and/or activities of people. In this vision, distributed peer-to-peer (P2P) technologies provide a respectable alternative to ...
