Delay Tolerant Mobile Networks (DTMNs): Controlled Flooding in Sparse Mobile Networks
Overview The incredible growth in the capabilities and functionality of mobile devices has enabled new applications to emerge. Due to the potential for node mobility, along with significant node heterogeneity, characteristics such as very large delays, intermittent links and high link error rates pose a new set of challenges. Along with these challenges, end-to-end paths are assumed not to exist and message relay approaches are often adopted. While message flooding happens to be a simple and robust solution for such cases, its cost in terms of network resource consumption is unaffordable. This paper focuses on the evaluation of different controlled message flooding schemes over large-scale, sparse mobile networks.
