Abstract. The newscast model is a general approach for communication in large agent-based distributed systems. The two basic services— membership management and information disse...
Broadcasting is a commonly used communication primitive needed by many applications and protocols in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). Unfortunately, most broadcast solutions are ta...
The emergence of large-scale distributed applications based on many-to-many communication models, e.g., broadcast and decentralized group communication, has an important impact on ...
We present a method for using real world mobility traces to identify tractable theoretical models for the study of distributed algorithms in mobile networks. We validate the metho...
—Gossip-based Peer-to-Peer protocols proved to be very efficient for supporting dynamic and complex information exchange among distributed peers. They are useful for building an...
