Community based energy efficient routing protocol for pocket switched networks

This thesis report is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science and Engineering, 2015.Cataloged from PDF version of thesis report.Includes bibliographical references (page 60-67).PSN (Pocket switched Network) is an emerging research magnet that has been attracting researchers. PSN mainly worked based on the human mobility patterns. In order to make better routing decision PSN consider social behaviors of node. PSN employs human beings as nodes for effective data forwarding. To improve routing performance PSN take the advantages of social characteristics such as community and friendship to assist successful data forwarding. Bubble routing algorithm proposed by Hui et-al, provides an efficient way for forwarding data among different communities. In this thesis, we have proposed an Energy Efficient Routing (EER) algorithm that considers the community concepts and forwarding power of nodes among different communities for effective data forwarding. EER has provide better result on delivery ratio, low cost and low latency in data forwarding than Bubble and some other routing algorithms.Ratna Rani SarkarM. Computer Science and Engineerin
