Abstract:Due to lack of features of traditional network characteristics, DTN becomes one of the promising research paradigms of wireless network. As there are intermittent connectivity and store-carry-forward features, end-to-end acknowledgement is not possible. DTN is also named as 'opportunistic network'. But interestingly, intermediate nodes may always not behave fairly. Sometimes, due to limited resources (bandwidth and memory) intermediate nodes may behave 'selfish'. Intermediate nodes may also behave unfairly to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
