Synopsis

This textbook reviews the theory, applications, and latest breakthroughsin Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs). Presenting a specific focus on OpportunisticMobile Networks (OMNs), the text considers the influence of human aspects, andexamines emerging forms of inter-node cooperation. Features: containsreview terms and exercises in each chapter, with the solutions and source codeavailable at an associated website; introduces the fundamentals of DTNs, covering OMNs, PSNs,and MOONs; describes the ONE simulator, explaining how to set up a simulationproject; provides detailed insights into the development and testing ofprotocols, together with a set of best practices for increased productivity andoptimized performance; examines human aspects in the context of communicationnetworks, from human-centric applications to the impact of emotion onhuman-network interplay; proposes various schemes for inter-node cooperation inDTNs/OMNs; presents a detailed discussion on aspects of heterogeneity inDTNs.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

This clearly-written andpractically-focused textbook/reference reviews the fundamental theory, variedapplications, and latest breakthroughs in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs).Presenting a specific focus on Opportunistic Mobile Networks (OMNs), the textcarefully considers the influence of human aspects, and examines emerging formsof inter-node cooperation. Readers will learn how to master protocoldevelopment and testing, overcome issues of non-cooperative behavior, andaddress heterogeneity in OMNs and other networks.

Topics and features:

• Contains review terms, study exercises and programming exercises in each chapter, with the solutions and source code available at an associated website
• Introduces the fundamentals of DTNs, covering OMNs, Pocket Switched Networks (PSNs), and Mission-Oriented Opportunistic Networks (MOONs)
• Describes the Opportunistic Network Environment (ONE) simulator, explaining how to set up a simulation project using NetBeans, and the version control software Git
• Provides detailed insights into the development and testing of protocols, together with a set of best practices for increased productivity and optimized performance
• Examines human aspects in the context of communication networks, from human-centric applications to the impact of emotion on human-network interplay
• Proposes various schemes for inter-node cooperation in DTNs/OMNs, including incentive-based and game theoretic approaches, as well as the DISCUSS scheme
• Presents a detailed discussion on aspects of heterogeneity in DTNs, and a comprehensive review of the latest research on DTNs/OMNs

Students and instructorswill find this easy-to-follow work to be ideally suitable as a textbook forintroductory courses on OMNs and advanced courses on communication networks.Researchers will be greatly interested in the descriptions of state-of-the-artdevelopments in OMNs, wireless sensor, and ad hoc networks. Practitionersdeveloping real-world applications will also benefit from the coverage ofrelevant technical specifications and patents.
