User-generated podcasting service over human-centric opportunistic network can facilitate user-generated content sharing while humans are on the move beyond the coverage of infrastructure networks. We focus on the aspects of designing efficient forwarding ...
An ephemeral network is usually defined by the very short-lived and heterogeneous nature of interactions among self-organizing wireless devices. The wide penetration in everyday gadgets of radio technologies operating in unlicensed frequency spectrum, such ...
We consider the polling problem in a social network where participants care about their reputation: they do not want their vote to be disclosed nor their misbehaving, if any, to be publicly exposed. Assuming this reputation concern, we show that a simple s ...
The user-generated podcasting service over mobile opportunistic networks can facilitate the user generated content dissemination while humans are on the move. However, in such a distributed and dynamic network environment, the design of efficient content f ...
Reputation is a well established means to determine trustworthiness in online systems in various contexts, e.g. online transactions, product recommendation, e-mail spam fighting, etc. However, typically these reputation systems are "closed" outside of the ...
Reputation-based trust models based on statistical learning have been intensively studied for large-scale distributed systems whereas practical application of game-theoretic approaches using sanctioning are still very little understood in such settings. Th ...
Self-organized networks such as mobile ad-hoc, Internet-based peer-to-peer, wireless mesh and Fourth Generation (4G) Wireless networks depend on cooperation of nodes. Reputation systems help nodes decide with whom to cooperate and which nodes to avoid. The ...
UrbanSim is an integrated transportation land-use model that has been under development since the late 1990s. It has received a fair bit of attention in the integrated modeling community. Its notoriety comes primarily from its disaggregated approach. A num ...
The application of decentralized reputation systems is a promising approach to ensure cooperation and fairness, as well as to address random failures and malicious attacks in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks. However, they are potentially vulnerable to liars. With o ...
A frequently proposed solution to node misbehavior in mobile ad hoc networks is to use reputation systems. But in ephemeral networks - a new breed of mobile networks where contact times between nodes are short and neighbors change frequently - reputations ...
