Analysis of Opportunistic Networks based on Realistic Network Traces

چکیده
Opportunistic network is a type of Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) where network communication opportunities appear opportunistic, an end-to-end path between source and destination may have never existed, and disconnection and reconnection is common in the network. With numerous emerging opportunistic networking applications, strategies that can enable effective data communication in such challenged networking environments have become increasingly desirable. In particular, knowing fundamental properties of opportunistic networks will soon become the key for the proper design of oppor-

A Utility-Oriented Routing Scheme for Interest-Driven Community-Based Opportunistic Networks
Opportunistic networks, as representative networks evolved from social networks and Ad-hoc networks, have been on cutting edges in recent years. Many research efforts have focused on realistic mobility models and cost-effective routing schemes. The concept of “community”, as one of the most inherent attributes of opportunistic networks, has been proved to be very helpful in simulating mobility ...
متن کاملEvaluating Mobility Predictors in Wireless Networks for Improving Handoff and Opportunistic Routing
We evaluate mobility predictors in wireless networks. Handoff prediction in wireless networks has long been considered as a mechanism to improve the quality of service provided to mobile wireless users. Most prior studies, however, were based on theoretical analysis, simulation with synthetic mobility models, or small wireless network traces. We study the effect of mobility prediction for a lar...
متن کاملAn Analytical Study of People Mobility in Opportunistic Networks
An opportunistic network is a type of Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) in which communication opportunities are intermittent. Moreover, an end-to-end path between the source and the destination may never have existed, disconnection and reconnection are common occurrences, and link performance is highly variable or extreme. With numerous emerging opportunistic networking applications, strategies tha...
متن کاملAn Irregular Lattice Pore Network Model Construction Algorithm
Pore network modeling uses a network of pores connected by throats to model the void space of a porous medium and tries to predict its various characteristics during multiphase flow of various fluids. In most cases, a non-realistic regular lattice of pores is used to model the characteristics of a porous medium. Although some methodologies for extracting geologically realistic irregular net...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of the Effect of Pore Structure and Geometry on Petrophysical and Electrical Properties of Tight Media: Random Network Modeling
Several methodologies published in the literature can be used to construct realistic pore networks for simple rocks, whereas in complex pore geometry formations, as formed in tight reservoirs, such a construction still remains a challenge. A basic understanding of pore structure and topology is essential to overcome the challenges associated with the pore scale modeling of tight porous media. A...
