A context-rich and extensible framework for spontaneous smartphone networking

摘要: This paper presents the design principles, implementation, and evaluation of SPONET, a framework that has been specifically developed for spontaneous networking among smartphone users. SPONET four distinct objectives, providing (1) rich context location-aware networking, (2) robust cognitive (3) extensibility with various routing protocols, (4) convenient programming interface delay-tolerant applications. The key technical challenges are, therefore, unsupervised place learning, network construction without user intervention, policy low complexity. We have designed place-learning algorithm using properties scanned Wi-Fi access points to identify meaningful places. provides dynamic neighbor discovery data exchange mechanisms autonomous networking. implemented on Android-based, off-the-shelf smartphones any adaptation their architecture. Experimental results show proposed system is indeed acceptable as applications in smartphones.
