In distributed computing systems, processes in different hosts take checkpoints to survive failures. For mobile computing systems, due to certain new characteristics conventional d...
A protocol for the reliable multicast of data to mobile hosts is described. A logical ring is maintained between all the base stations that handle the multicast traffic of the sam...
This work describes mechanisms for simulating opportunistic and delay-tolerant networks in the OMNeT++ discrete event simulator. The mechanisms allow for simulating open systems o...
