Because of the breadth of of the field, a wide variety of evaluation techniques have been developed and utilized. The goal of this panel is to showcase and discuss an interesting and current selection of evaluation efforts. In this year’s CHANTS submissions over a third used the ONE simulator from Aalto University [1, 2]. Keeping in mind that not all papers were based on simulation, it is fair to say that the ONE is becoming the de-facto simulation tool for certain types of DTN research. This is beneficial in that it facilitates comparisons between routing protocols, and allows researchers to focus their efforts on a single accessible tool. However the growing body of work that compares protocols that exist only in simulation may indicate an over-reliance on simulation and could lead to overlooking important practical technical challenges in the field. Another approach to evaluation is to deploy trial nodes in a real environment. Masato Tsuru has been involved in such field tests in collaboration with Japan’s NIICT and will be able to discuss their reasons for carrying out their experiments and the challenges involved. In addition the DARPA DTN project involved a considerable amount of field testing, and BBN’s Armando Caro will be able to give his perspective on the value and importance of their tests.","PeriodicalId":404958,"journal":{"name":"CHANTS '10","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116696438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Communication protocols originally designed to accommodate communication in the intermittent and high-delay environment of deep space have been applied to sensor networks, battlefield networks, and more recently, peer-to-peer content sharing and social networking. However despite a flurry of creative proposals for ways this new technology could be used, and the diaspora of mobile phone apps whose sole novelty is to mimic the behavior of an opportunistic network, the technology has not found its way into common use, even among the researchers who specialize in the field.\u0000 We are developing competitive challenges, or games, in which participants would use BP in order to accomplish some nominal goal. By making the activity competitive and offering some reward to the best performers, we hope to get large numbers of conference attendees communicating with BP on a daily basis. In the process people will begin to discover how DTN technology and associated applications can be used to meet their own communication needs.\u0000 Though these games do provide some entertainment value, the point of the activity is to get people using DTNs to communicate in a real environment, to stress test the available DTN software, and to spur the development of DTN-capable applications.","PeriodicalId":404958,"journal":{"name":"CHANTS '10","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115735045","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The solution leverages existing road and vehicle infrastructure to create a digital wireless network by installing custom WiFi access points on vehicles already travelling between rural areas lacking Internet connectivity and urban areas where Internet connectivity is present. We will review how this technology was implemented in rural areas of five developing countries, citing technical results and challenges. While the technology seemed to have solved the last mile problem by reducing the connectivity cost per capita to a few cents, it failed to address what I refer to as the \"last inch\" problem: the need to identify the data and interface that users are willing to pay for in order to sustain the connectivity infrastructure without donations and grants. I will explain how we adapted to address this last inch problem by migrating to a new mobile infrastructure with a more specific market focus. I will explore what lessons can be learned from our experiences as well as highlight areas for further research.\u0000 \"Technology is easy, humans are hard. - John Gage, Former Chief Researcher at Sun Microsystems","PeriodicalId":404958,"journal":{"name":"CHANTS '10","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131295187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
