Abstract Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication is a promising technology for next
generation communication systems. This communication paradigm facilitates ubiquitous …

This survey provides an in-depth analysis of the different proposals for Vehicular Delay
Tolerant Networks (VDTNs). We introduce the DTN architecture and classify VDTN …

Intermittently connected mobile networks are wireless networks where most of the time there
does not exist a complete path from the source to the destination. There are many real …

Many DTN routing protocols use a variety of mechanisms, including discovering the meeting
probabilities among nodes, packet replication, and network coding. The primary focus of …

In this paper, we develop a rigorous, unified framework based on ordinary differential
equations (ODEs) to study epidemic routing and its variations. These ODEs can be derived …

Intermittently connected mobile networks are wireless networks where most of the time there
does not exist a complete path from the source to the destination. There are many real …

This paper demonstrates the advantages of using controlled mobility in wireless sensor
networks (WSNs) for increasing their lifetime, ie, the period of time the network is able to …

Delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) have the potential to connect devices and areas of the world
that are under-served by current networks. A critical challenge for DTNs is determining …

The vision of an Internet of Things (IoT) has captured the imagination of the world and raised
billions of dollars, all before we stopped to deeply consider how all these Things should …

The vehicle delay tolerant networks (DTNs) make opportunistic communications by utilizing
the mobility of vehicles, where the node makes delay-tolerant based “carry and forward” …
