Avaliando o algoritmo Spray-and-Wait na comunicação entre dispositivos móveis através de DTNS

Abstract

Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) has challenging features to communication in its various scenarios. Its main feature is the intermittent communication from constant disconnections and high latency. In this way, new routing algorithms, with new approaches, have been developed to be able to communicate in these environments, once as conventional algorithms do not meet the needs of these new networks. Among these, there is the routing algorithm Spray and Wait, which was evaluated in this work under various scenarios were simulated. These scenarios was designed and configured in order to approach the most everyday of modern society. Such scenarios have communication features of mobile networks. The results of the simulations showed an excellent performance of the algorithm in the various metrics evaluated.
