Performance of Information Discovery and Message Relaying in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Overview This paper presents 7DS, a novel peer-to-peer resource sharing system. 7DS is an architecture, a set of protocols and an implementation enabling the exchange of data among peers that are not necessarily connected to the Internet. Peers can be either mobile or stationary. The paper focuses on three different facets of cooperation, namely, data sharing, message relaying and network connection sharing. 7DS enables wireless devices to discover, disseminate, and relay information among each other to increase the data access. The paper evaluates via extensive simulations the effectiveness of the system for data dissemination and message relaying among mobile devices with a large number of use mobility scenarios.
