Improving routing performance in disruption tolerant network

Abstract

Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs), also called as intermittently connected mobile networks, are wireless networks in which a fully connected path from source to destination is unlikely to exist. To deal with this issue, prediction based routing scheme is used to select future contact node using mobility history information. The prediction based routing in DTNs, where node determining probability distribution for future contact time and choosing next intermediate node to increase end-to-end delivery and reduce latency.
