TLDR
The model incorporates incentives for users to act as transit nodes on multi-hop paths and to be rewarded with their own ability to send traffic and illustrates the way in which network resources are allocated to users according to their geographical position.
Abstract
This paper explores a model for the operation of an ad hoc mobile network. The model incorporates incentives for users to act as transit nodes on multi-hop paths and to be rewarded with their own ability to send traffic. The paper explores consequences of the model by means of fluid-level simulations of a network and illustrates the way in which network resources are allocated to users according to their geographical position.

A hierarchical account-aided reputation management system for MANETs

TL;DR: Simulation results show that ARM outperforms the individual reputation system and price system in terms of effectiveness and efficiency of providing cooperation incentives and deterring selfish behaviors.

Opportunistic wireless access networks

TL;DR: This work discusses a new paradigm for wireless access called opportunistic collaborative networking, where communication is disruption-tolerant and wireless devices exploit any opportunity of communication, albeit temporary, to forward messages towards the destination.

Incentives for electronic coupon systems

TL;DR: This paper examines an electronic coupon system, where providers send out coupons, which are passed from user to user, and derives an optimal strategy which allows each user to determine how many bonus points she should ask for when passing the coupon.

An Incentive-Based Framework for Vehicle-Based Mobile Sensing☆

TL;DR: This work adopts the concept of participatory sensing for mobile surveillance by involving a human into the loop of data collection by introducing a virtual credit based mechanism to motivate the participants to collect data and share their bandwidth.

Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) Routing

TL;DR: A logging instrument contains a pulsed neutron source and a pair of radiation detectors spaced along the length of the instrument to provide an indication of formation porosity which is substantially independent of the formation salinity.

The capacity of wireless networks

TL;DR: When n identical randomly located nodes, each capable of transmitting at W bits per second and using a fixed range, form a wireless network, the throughput /spl lambda/(n) obtainable by each node for a randomly chosen destination is /spl Theta/(W//spl radic/(nlogn)) bits persecond under a noninterference protocol.

Rate control for communication networks: shadow prices, proportional fairness and stability

TL;DR: This paper analyses the stability and fairness of two classes of rate control algorithm for communication networks, which provide natural generalisations to large-scale networks of simple additive increase/multiplicative decrease schemes, and are shown to be stable about a system optimum characterised by a proportional fairness criterion.

Mobility increases the capacity of ad hoc wireless networks

TL;DR: The per-session throughput for applications with loose delay constraints, such that the topology changes over the time-scale of packet delivery, can be increased dramatically under this assumption, and a form of multiuser diversity via packet relaying is exploited.
