This paper shows how using a small label, identifying users according to their affiliation, can bring a large improvement in forwarding performance, in term of both delivery ratio and cost.
Abstract
It is widely believed that identifying communities in an ad hoc mobile communications system, such as a pocket switched network, can reduce the amount of traffic created when forwarding messages, but there has not been any empirical evidence available to support this assumption to date. In this paper, we show through use of real experimental human mobility data, how using a small label, identifying users according to their affiliation, can bring a large improvement in forwarding performance, in term of both delivery ratio and cost

Bubble rap: social-based forwarding in delay tolerant networks

TL;DR: BUBBLE is designed and evaluated, a novel social-based forwarding algorithm that utilizes the aforementioned metrics to enhance delivery performance and empirically shows that BUBBLE can substantially improve forwarding performance compared to a number of previously proposed algorithms including the benchmarking history-based PROPHET algorithm, and social- based forwarding SimBet algorithm.

Social Network Analysis for Information Flow in Disconnected Delay-Tolerant MANETs

TL;DR: This paper presents social network analysis metrics that may be used to support a novel and practical forwarding solution to provide efficient message delivery in disconnected delay-tolerant MANETs and shows improved performance when compared to PRoPHET routing.

Distributed community detection in delay tolerant networks

TL;DR: This work proposes and evaluates three novel distributed community detection approaches with great potential to detect both static and temporal communities and finds that with suitable configuration of the threshold values, the distributedcommunity detection can approximate their corresponding centralised methods up to 90% accuracy.

A Survey of Social-Based Routing in Delay Tolerant Networks: Positive and Negative Social Effects

TL;DR: The social properties in DTNs are summarized, some open issues and challenges in social-based approaches regarding the design of DTN routing protocols are discussed, and some of these methods either take advantages of positive social characteristics to assist packet forwarding or consider negative social characteristics such as selfishness.
