Title
Caching algorithms for broadcasting and multicasting in disruption tolerant networks.
Abstract
In delay and disruption tolerant networks, the contacts among nodes are intermittent. Because of the importance of data access, providing efficient data access is the ultimate aim of analyzing and exploiting disruption tolerant networks. Caching is widely proved to be able to improve data access performance. In this paper, we consider caching schemes for broadcasting and multicasting to improve the performance of data access. First, we propose a caching algorithm for broadcasting, which selects the community central nodes as relays from both network structure perspective and social network perspective. Then, we accommodate the caching algorithm for multicasting by considering the data query pattern. Extensive trace-driven simulations are conducted to investigate the essential difference between the caching algorithms for broadcasting and multicasting and evaluate the performance of these algorithms.
