The introduction of intelligent devices with short range wireless communication techniques
has motivated the development of Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) during the last few …

Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) may lack continuous network connectivity. Routing in DTNs
is thus challenging since it must handle network partitioning, long delays, and dynamic …

In this article we discuss the state of the art of (mobile) multihop ad hoc networking. This
paradigm has often been identified with the solutions developed inside the IETF MANET …

Existing routing algorithms for Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) assume that nodes are
willing to forward packets for others. In the real world, however, most people are socially …

Thanks to the convergence of pervasive mobile communications and fast-growing online
social networking, mobile social networking is penetrating into our everyday life. Aiming to …

Abstract Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) have practical applications in various fields. DTNs
have been studied in-depth by many researchers and multiple high quality survey papers …

Mobile crowdsensing is a new paradigm in which a crowd of mobile users exploit their
carried smart phones to conduct complex sensing tasks. In this paper, we focus on the …

Mobile social networks (MSNs) are a kind of delay tolerant network that consists of lots of
mobile nodes with social characteristics. Recently, many social-aware algorithms have been …

In Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs), the mobility of the network users can heavily affect
the performance of networking protocols because it causes sudden connectivity changes …

Mobile crowdsensing is a new paradigm in which a crowd of mobile users exploit their
carried smart devices to conduct complex computation and sensing tasks in mobile social …
