  2. Outline • Introduction • Mobility models • Mobility characteristics • Routing protocols • Future directions • Summary

  3. MOTIVATION • Mobility intertwines with routing protocols to play a vital role in opportunistic networks • Mobility properties are utilized by routing protocols to improve performance • Study on mobility models, analytical results on motion characteristics and routing strategies will help developing novel integrated mobility and message dissemination solutions for opportunistic networks

  4. INTRODUCTION • Present a survey over mobility models, analytical results on motion characteristics and routing strategies • Mobility models are the evaluation tools for routing protocols and the sources for movement pattern analysis • Analytical results contribute to new mobility models with increased flexibility in reproducing desired network scenarios • Routing protocols can make use of underlying mobile topological structures from results of mobility analysis

  7. MOBILITY MODELS • Movements are most likely the explicit or implicit results of their social or personal activities. • Physical locations • Social intentions • Classifications • Non-Map Without-Intention Models • Map Without-Intention Models • Non-Map With-Intention Models • Map With-Intention Models

  8. Non-Map Without-Intention Models • Attributes: • no restrictions on paths nor intention of movement • Basic model • Random Walk Model [8]: Memoryless • Random Waypoint Model [28]: Delay factor to simulate pauses • Random Direction Mobility Model[43]: Additionally deal with the movements when hitting simulation boundary • Realistic model • Gauss-Markov Mobility Model [30]: Simulate the acceleration and deceleration • Heterogeneous Random Walk[40]: Simulate the clustered network

  9. Map Without-Intention Models • Attributes: • movements are restricted to physical world paths. • Freeway model[1]: Vertical and horizontal tracks of freeway • City block[14]: Street grid • Street Random Waypoint mobility model[11]: Considering the intra-segment mobility and inter-segment mobility on street grid • Vehicular network model[44]: Stop signs, timed traffic lights and control on next road

  10. Non-Map With-Intention Models • Attributes: • No path restriction • With individual or shared movement intentions • Group based model • Reference Point Group Mobility Model (RPGM)[22]: paths of nodes in the same group following the movement of the group leader • Interaction-based mobility model[34]: characterizes the formation and disaggregation of hot spots at random times and locations • Community based model • Community based mobility model[35]: Captures the feature that a number of hosts are grouped together • Community model with cyclic pattern[54]: defines the repeating time period to model re-visits to the same locations

  11. Map With-Intention Models • Attributes • Realistic features such as moving along paths and with intentions • Trace based model • Bus traces[2], GPS trace[9], WLAN trace[51], Trace in campus [23] • Agenda Driven Mobility model[59]: use National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) data to synthesize each node’s agenda, which derives its mobility of when, where and what (pause time) • Graph-based model • Area Graph based mobility model[4]: A directed and weighted graph to model locations and paths between locations • Levy walk based model • Heavy-tail distribution[41]: movement increment is distributed according to a heavy-tail distribution

  12. Summary of the Models • Trend of mobility modeling has moved towards more realistic by taking considerations of both social intentions and geographical features • Artificially consider social interaction and attraction • Analyzing real world traces • WLAN associations give hits on mobility • Impact • Effective evaluation tools • Play an important role for message forwarding in opportunistic networks

Outline: Mobility Characteristics Motion Characteristics Temporal properties Spatial properties Assist routing New model Graph properties Analysis Routing Protocols Mobility Models Proactiverouting Evaluation • no map, no intention Reactive routing -contact based -community based -auxiliary node based w map, no intention no map, w intention w map, w intention

  14. MOBILITY CHARACTERISTICS • Contribute toperformance evaluation, simulation calibration, routings protocol design • Classifications • Characteristics of Flight • Locality Distribution • Temporal Characteristics • Joint Spatial and Temporal Analysis • Graph Characteristics

  15. Characteristics of Flight • Flight: the longest straight line trip from one location to another • Flight length distribution can be heavy-tail, or exponential • Flight reflects the diffusivity of mobility • Models with different diffusivity • Random Waypoint model, Brownian Motion, Levy Walk model • Impact • Diffusive nodes are helpful for relaying messages to larger areas

  16. Locality Distribution • Different movement patterns lead to various spatial locality distributions • Distributions can be uniform or heterogeneous • Discussed models: • Brownian-motion, Random Waypoint Model, Heterogeneous Random Walk • Impact • Cluster based routing is suitable in networks with heterogeneous distribution

  17. Temporal Characteristics • Many properties have been analyzed: • encounter frequency, pause time, hitting time, meeting time, inter-contact time, filling time, scattering time • Impact • Encounter history matters for choosing next forwarder • Pause time, hitting time, meeting time, inter-contact time are useful in estimating message delay and delivery rate • Filling time and scattering time describe the dynamics of hot spots, can be useful for cluster-based routing

  18. Joint Spatial and Temporal Analysis • Time and space are closely related in mobility • Trajectory similarity: Compute similarity using a set of metrics including Euclidean distance, etc. • Discussed models: Vehicular model[29], Mobyspace [27], location based time-dependent link analysis[20][21] • Impact • Routing uses clusters or high similarity nodes • Help to identify popular locations in mobile networks and trajectory segments • Calculate communication latency

  19. Graph Characteristics • Using graph properties to identify mobility patterns • Centrality [17] • Degree centrality, closeness centrality, betweennesscentrality • Social networks • k-clique community, network connectivity • Discussed models: Clique community[25], Continuum framework [10] • Impact • Node with higher centrality as forwarder, community helps to group mobile nodes, connectivity analysis

  23. ROUTING STRATEGIES • Routing principle: store-carry-forward • Classifications: • Proactive Routing: with centralized or off-line knowledge about network • Reactive Routing: without a global or predetermined knowledge • Contact based routing: forward messages using the encounter history • Community based routing: identify and rely on various clusters • Auxiliary node based routing: introduce mobile or static message ferries

  24. Proactive Routing • knowledge such as contacts history, queuing length and traffic demands • Use a graph with time-varying delay and capacity • Discussed protocols: • Framework of DTN routing which takes different levels of network knowledge [26] • Treat routing as a resource allocation problem[2] • Link with contact probability calculated from cyclic movement pattern [32] • Routing assisted by static relay nodes deployed at critical locations for cyclic movement pattern[19] • Mobyspace with the assumption of full network knowledge [27]

  25. Reactive: Contact based routing • Forwarding decision is made when two nodes encounter each other • Discussed protocols • Epidemic routing [52]: forward to each contact • PROPHET: employ a probabilistic metric called delivery predictability [31] • Spray and Wait protocol: broadcasts only a fixed number of copies of message [49] • Seek and Focus protocol: hybrid protocol which includes utility-based routing and randomized routing [49]

  26. Reactive: Community based routing • Identify and use a special group of nodes • Better sociability • Frequent contacts with the destinations • Attached to a hot location • Discussed Protocols • Distributed method to identify central nodes[13] • Multicast routing [18] • Island Hopping [46] • Connected dominating set for VANET [33]

  27. Reactive: Auxiliary node based routing • Introduce nodes specially designed for message relay, either mobile or static • Discussed routing • Auxiliary node with Levy Walk pattern[47] • Levy Walk searching[53] • Mobile message ferry[57] • Static throw box[58]
