Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networking-Based Routing for Rural Internet Connectivity (DRINC)

Context-aware Adaptive Routing for Delay Tolerant Networking

Delay tolerant networking has received considerable attention from the research community in the recent years. Advances in wireless and mobile technologies have enabled new application scenarios where intermittent disconnections are common and not exceptional. Examples include communication in sparse mobile ad hoc networks for emergency support, infostation-based systems for connectivity in rem...

Considering Pigeons for Carrying Delay Tolerant Networking Based Internet Traffic in Developing Countries

There are many regions in the developing world that suffer from poor infrastructure and lack of connection to the Internet and Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN). Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) is a technology that has been advocated for providing store-andforward network connectivity in these regions over the past few years. DTN often relies on human mobility in one form or another to ...

Internet Routing Instability - Networking, IEEE/ACM Transactions on

This paper examines the network interdomain routing information exchanged between backbone service providers at the major U.S. public Internet exchange points. Internet routing instability, or the rapid fluctuation of network reachability information, is an important problem currently facing the Internet engineering community. High levels of network instability can lead to packet loss, increase...

Secure Internet Connectivity for Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) based Mobile Ad hoc Networks

‘Secure routing in Mobile Ad hoc networks’ and ‘Internet connectivity to Mobile Ad hoc networks’ have been dealt separately in the past research. This paper proposes a light weight solution for secure routing in integrated Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET)-Internet. The proposed framework ensures mutual authentication of Mobile Node (MN), Foreign Agent (FA) and Home Agent (HA) to avoid various atta...
