  1. 1. Opportunistic Networking : Congestion, Transfer Ordering and Resilience

    Author : Fredrik Bjurefors; Per Gunningberg; Christian Rohner; Mario Gerla; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Opportunistic Networking; Congestion; Transfer Ordering; Resilience; Testbed; WISENET; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datorkommunikation; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Communication;

    Abstract : Opportunistic networks are constructed by devices carried by people and vehicles. The devices use short range radio to communicate. Since the network is mobile and often sparse in terms of node contacts, nodes store messages in their buffers, carrying them, and forwarding them upon node encounters. READ MORE
