Abstract
Thanks to the popularity of personal hand-held mobile devices (e.g., MP3 players, PDAs and smartphones), people of similar interests or commonalities in intermittently- connected human networks can cooperate to establish network connectivity and communicate with each other in the absence of network infrastructure [69] [118]. Due to such ad hoc characteristics, Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) [1] can be deployed in a number of critical areas, including battlefield operations, ve- hicular ad hoc networks and disaster response scenarios [80] [119] [120] [121].
