Abstract:
Opportunistic resource sharing, and contacts’ interaction in opportunistic networks, faces several resource challenges that need to be faced via intelligent combinatorial practices. This work proposes a scheme which takes into account the non-synchronized motion of the devices in an urban area where an intelligent opportunistic socially oriented caching scheme is presented. The concept of social centrality is being introduced and modeled, which takes into consideration interactions among users. Through the proposed model the users’ interactions can be exploited through time according to the contact frequency, in order to enable in an efficient way opportunistic resource sharing among mobile peers. The collaborative opportunistic communication with the proposed combined social-oriented model and the gossip-based replication scheme is thoroughly evaluated through experimental simulation, which takes measures for the end-to-end reliability of the resource sharing scheme. The proposed scheme enables efficient resource sharing via the social model and the evaluated interactions, minimizing at the same time, the delay variations between packets and maximizing the efficiency of resource exchange between mobile peers.
