Routing in Mobile Opportunistic Networks
Libo Song, David F. Kotz · Auerbach Publications eBooks · 2011
One solution for message delivery in such networks is that the source passively waits for the destination to be in communication range and then delivers the message. Another active solution is to ood the message to any nodes in communication range. e receiving nodes carry the message and repeatedly ood the network with the message. Both solutions have obvious advantages and disadvantages: the rst may have a low delivery ratio while using few resources; the second may have a high delivery ratio while using many resources.
