While portable and wireless devices are pouring, a new network technology is needed as a breakthrough. The new network technology features large delays, intermittent connectivity, and absence of an end-to-end path from sources to destinations. A network which has one of those characteristics is called DTNs(Delay Tolerant Networks). The main 4 routing methods have been researched so far in extream environment. In this paper, we look into the reliability of DTMNs(Delay Tolerant Mobile Networks) in several different situations, and propose an algorithm that selects a positive routine by sending the only information of its position when making a connection to a detected node. We simulate the proposed algorithm here in DTN using ONE simulator. As a result, it shows that the algorithm reduces the number of message transmission each node.

Delay-Disruption Tolerant Network(DTN)는 stored-and-forward를 통한 비대칭 통신을 하며 이러한 통신에 적합한 라우팅을 고려하기 위한 연구가 지속적으로 진행 되고 있다. 이러한 라우팅은 Bundle layer에 스토리지를 두어 종 단간 연결이 끊어지더라도 메시지를 보존 할 수 있으며, 현재 이러한 DTN의 특징을 Mobile Ad-hoc Network(MANET)에 적용하여 노드의 이동성을 보다 다이나믹하게 유지 할 수 있도록 하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이동성이 잦은 지역에서 메시지를 효과적으로 전송하기 위하여 MANET과 DTN 의 특징이 적용된 네트워크 환경에서 AODV 라우팅 테이블 안에 Score를 두어 경로 재탐색이나 메시지 전송이 반복될 경우 Score 값을 기준으로 보다 우월한 노드를 찾을 수 있게 하였다.

Replication routing can greatly improve the data delivery performance by enabling multiple replicas of the same packet to be transmitted towards its destination simultaneously. It has been studied extensively recently and is now a widely accepted routing paradigm in delay tolerant networks (DTNs). However, in this field, the issue of how to maximize the utilization efficiency of limited replication quota in a resource-saving manner and therefore making replication routing to be more efficient in networks with limited resources has not received enough attention. In this paper, we propose a DTN routing protocol with back-pressure based replica distribution. Our protocol models the replica distribution problem from a resource allocation perspective and it utilizes the idea of back-pressure algorithm, which can be used for providing efficient network resource allocation for replication quota assignment among encountered nodes. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed protocol significantly outperforms existing replication routing protocols in terms of packet delay and delivery ratio.

Mobile social network can be seen as a specific application of the DTN (Delay Tolerant Network), in which the information propagation can be impacted by many social behaviors of the nodes. For a specific node, its social behaviors are various. For example, the node may not be interested in the information before receiving it and may also discard the information after getting it. On the other hand, people are more willing to forward the message to his friends. These interactive behaviors between nodes can be seen as social behaviors. It is easy to see that the impact of the social behaviors is related to the social ties, which can be manifested by the structure of the social network. State of the art works often simply assumes that the social networks can be divided into some communities. At present, some works find that the structure of some social networks is scale-free. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a theoretical model to evaluate the impact of above social behaviors in the DTN-like scale-free network. Simulation shows the accuracy of the model. Numerical results show that both social behaviors and scale-free character have significant impact on information propagation. Moreover, the impact of social behaviors is related to the scale-free character of the networks.

본 논문에서는 Delay Tolerant Networks(DTNs)에서 Markov chain으로 노드의 속성 정보 변화율을 분석하여 노드의 이동 경로를 예측하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존 DTN에서 예측기반 라우팅 기법은 노드가 미리 정해진 스케줄에 따라 이동한다. 이러한 네트워크에서는 스케줄을 예측할 수 없는 환경에서 노드의 신뢰성이 낮아진다. 본 논문에서는 일정 구간의 노드의 속성 정보의 시간에 따른 변화율을 Markov chain을 이용하여 노드의 이동 경로를 예측하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 노드의 속성 정보 중 노드의 속도와 방향성을 근사한 후, 변화율을 분석하고 이로부터 Markov chain을 이용하여 확률전이 매트릭스를 생성하여 노드의 이동 경로를 예측하는 알고리즘이다. 주어진 모의실험 환경에서 노드의 이동 경로 예측을 통해 중계 노드를 선정하여 라우팅 함으로써 네트워크 오버헤드와 전송 지연 시간이 감소함을 보여주고 있다.

This paper propose an improving relay node selection method for node-to-node connectivity. This concern with the mobility and analysis of deployed for masking operation using highest connectivity node. The major of Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) routing protocols make use of simple forwarding approach to transmit the message depend on the node's mobility. In this cases, the selection of the irrelevant mobile node induced the delay and packet delivery loss caused by limiting buffer size and computational power of node. Also the proposed algorithm provides the node connectivity considering the mobility and direction select the highest connectivity node from neighbor node using masking operation. From the simulation results, the proposed algorithm compared the packet delivery ratio with PROPHET and Epidemic. The proposed Enhanced Prediction-based Context-awareness Matrix(EPCM) algorithm shows an advantage packet delivery ratio even with selecting relay node according to mobility and direction.

DTNs (Delay Tolerant Networks) refer to the networks that can support data transmission in the extreme networking situations such as continuous delay and no connectivity between ends. DTMNs (Delay Tolerant Networks) are a specific range of DTNs, and its chief considerations in the process of message delivery in the routing protocol are the transmission delay, improvement of reliability, and reduction of network loading. This article proposes a new LCN (Largest Common Neighbor) routing algorism to improve Spray and Wait routing protocol that prevents the generation of unnecessary packets in a network by letting mobile nodes limit the number of copies of their messages to all nodes to L. Since higher L is distributed to nodes with directivity to the destination node and the maximum number of common neighbor nodes among the mobile nodes based on the directivity information of each node and the maximum number of common neighbor nodes, more efficient node transmission can be realized. In order to verify this proposed algorism, DTN simulator was designed by using ONE simulator. According to the result of this simulation, the suggested algorism can reduce average delay and unnecessary message generation.

DTN flooding based routing protocol replicate the message copy to increase the delivery like hood that overloads the network resources. The probabilistic routing protocols reduce replication cost by forwarding the message to a node that holds high predictability value to meet its destination. However, the network traffic converges to high probable nodes and produce congestion that triggers the drop of previously stored messages. In this paper, we have proposed a routing protocol called as Connection frequency Buffer Aware Routing Protocol (CFBARP) that uses an adaptive method to maintain the information about the available buffer space at the receiver before message transmission. Furthermore, a frequency based method has been employed to determine the connection recurrence among nodes. The proposed strategy has performed well in terms of reducing message drop, message relay while increases the delivery probability.

Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) is recently become popular on the internet since we can download and transfer mass data through it. However, transferring data with distances over 100m often causes some troubles. When downloading mass data from moving vehicles such as cars, jeeps, tanks, etc., if the download process from the first AP (Access Point) is not completed then we have to re-start this process from the second AP (from 0%). Therefore, the question is how to maintain the data we have received from the first AP, and then continuously download remaining data from the next APs in a battlefield environment. In this paper, we propose an effective method for receiving mass data separately from the mobile receive nodes in a Delay Tolerant Network (DTN). We carried on an experiment and evaluation by simulation; these simulation results are provided to show the proposed information delivery scheme performance.

DTN is the next generation network that is used in not guaranteed end-to-end connection such as communication between planet and satellite, frequent connection severance, and not enough for qualified network infrastructure. In this paper, we propose the hybrid Spray-and-Wait algorithm to predict the node contact time by monitoring the periodic contacts information between the nodes. Based on this method, we select one node on the basis of prediction time and copy a message for spray and wait algorithm. In order to verify the the hybrid Spray and Wait algorithm, we use the ONE(Opportunistic Network Environment) Simulator of Helsinki University. The delivery probability of the proposed algorithm is compared to the Binary Spray and Wait algorithm, it is showed that it has 10% less overhead than Binary Spray and Wait routing. It has also shown that it reduces unnecessary copying of this message.
