From ego network to social network models
Marco Conti, Andrea Passarella, Fabio Pezzoni · 2012
The development of routing protocols for human pervasive networks can not disregard contextual information. Social network models can help researches giving information about human behaviors, e.g. estimating contact opportunities between nodes. In a previous work we defined a model for ego networks while in this work we present a method to integrate ego networks and obtain synthetic social networks ready-to-use for the development of routing protocols.
