Information Exchange in Mobile Encounter Network

2007

In this paper we analyze an information exchange method based on information diffusion in mobile encounter networks, a form of mobile peer-to-peer networks. We utilize dual mobility model which provides support for more realistic simulations compared to mobility models based only one method of movement. The distribution of the mobile device encounter intervals are discussed and analyzed via simulation runs. The logistic model is suggested to provide reasonably accurate estimates of the information diffusion process.
