Shared content editing in opportunistic networks
Teemu Kärkkäinen, Jörg Ott · 2014
This paper examines shared content editing in opportunistic networks. Instead of immutable messages, such as photos or music files that are often assumed in opportunistic network applications, we focus on mutable content, such as wiki-pages, that can be edited by anyone carrying a copy. We show through simulations that mutable content can be handled by using revision control mechanisms (merging), or by simply adopting/discarding versions wholesale.
