ABSTRACT
Different from existing mobility-assisted data access techniques, we propose to use data diffusion to reduce the query delay in DTNs. We use social network analysis to classify and study four diffusion schemes based on the "homophily" phenomenon in social network. Theoretical models are further developed to analyze the data diffusion process and compare the performance of the four proposed diffusion schemes in terms of diffusion speed and query delay.

Multicasting in delay tolerant networks: a social network perspective
MobiHoc '09: Proceedings of the tenth ACM international symposium on Mobile ad hoc networking and computingNode mobility and end-to-end disconnections in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) greatly impair the effectiveness of data dissemination. Although social-based approaches can be used to address the problem, most existing solutions only focus on forwarding ...
