Encouraging Cooperation in Ad-hoc Mobile-Phone Mesh Networks for Rural Connectivity
Published By: IIM-A on eSS | Published Date: August, 06 , 2009This paper proposes a rating based scheme for encouraging user participation in adhoc
mobile phone mesh networks. These networks are particularly attractive for
remote/rural areas in developing countries as they do not depend on costly
infrastructure and telecom operators. We evaluate our scheme using extensive
simulations and find that our proposed scheme is successful in enhancing the network
throughput. [W.P. No. 2009-08-01]
