“…-The proposed NC technique requires only local neighborhood information to perform the cooperative data transfer and therefore avoids flooding the network with signalling information. -NC-m2m file dissemination outperforms even most-utile m2m algorithm, which is supported with perfect knowledge about the network topology [PHGK08]. -Simulations demonstrate the enhanced performance of the file distribution in terms of file download time.…”

Abstract. This paper is a sequel of previous work, in which we have studied the traffic management problem in UMTS. The main objective was to improve the spectral efficiency of cellular networks by employing network coding supported direct mobile-to-mobile communication on usually underloaded uplink channels for the distribution of a delay insensitive popular content in multicast manner. Simulations demonstrate the noticeable performance enhancement in terms of file download times and at the same time a substantial reduction of the number of necessary transmissions in both uplink and downlink directions. However, popular content is often too large to be processed with a straightforward realization of network coding; combining the entire file to construct a single encoded block is impractical due to high encoding and decoding costs. To circumvent this problem, a novel concept is proposed in this paper. The scheme is based on processing popular content of virtually arbitrary size by embedding multiple generations into network coding.Key words: improvement in information distribution, direct mobile-tomobile communication, network coding, multiple generations. Related Previous WorkThe aim of the analysis performed in the previous paper [PSGK07] was to improve the interaction between cellular and peer-to-peer networks by generalizing the traditional scheduling paradigm. A network coding technique [ACLY00, FBW05] was embedded as a solution to the scheduling problem in the distributed dynamic environment of wireless large-scale networks. We have investigated the performance of the Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) in terms of improvement in information distribution and dependability of information distribution among users by using direct mobile-to-mobile (m2m) data transmission mode. We have shown how, and in which terms network coding can thereby help. We have been especially interested in the distribution of the file download times for m2m users in different states of the download progress.

“…The group size is limited and each MT can be a member of only one group at a time, and members are not constrained to be from the same cell. Figure 9 illustrates a comparison of M2M2008 file sharing with conventional UMTS data transmission in high load (Popova et al, 2008). It can be observed that there is a significant reduction of the expected file download time, which is 142.3 sec.…”

Deployment of file sharing systems on wireless networks introduces several challenges specially when mobility comes into view. Thus, many researches have been performed in this field. The aim of this paper is to perform a systematic review on the existing solutions for file sharing in mobile devices based on Peer-to-Peer or shortly P2P approach. Five approaches are presented that are based on unstructured P2P systems; structured P2P system; mobile-to-mobile technique; tree-structured based; and incentive. These approaches of file sharing can work on one of the two wireless network configurations which are Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) and infrastructure based network. Furthermore, we discussed the advantages and limitations of these approaches. Finally, this paper concludes with some insights for research directions in this area.

Cooperation between mobile terminals (MTs) with the objective of energy minimization is studied. The purpose is to distribute a content of common interest to collaborating MTs while ensuring a reduced energy consumption. To reach this goal, the content is sent to selected MTs on a long‐range link. Then, it is forwarded to other MTs on short‐range mobile‐to‐mobile links. The problem is formulated as an optimization problem, and the optimal solution is shown to consist of sending the content to a single MT on the long‐range link and of having that MT distribute it on the short‐range links. This leads to an unfair energy consumption for the selected MT. Thus, to ensure fairness in energy consumption, a low complexity utility minimization algorithm is proposed. Using the appropriate utilities, the algorithm can be used to implement the optimal greedy energy minimization solution or to ensure different degrees of fairness in energy consumption. Practical constraints concerning the centralised and distributed implementations of the proposed algorithm are also discussed. Simulation results show that significant energy savings can be achieved with the proposed approach compared with the non‐collaborative case. In addition, a tradeoff between fairness and energy savings is achieved depending on the utility selected. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
