Abstract

We present OnMove, a protocol for content distribution in wireless delay tolerant networks for use by handheld devices. To improve content distribution, OnMove exploits social characteristics (social similarities and physical encounters) between individuals. We motivate the problem and describe a content sharing protocol based on a ranking algorithm that exploits the social and networking characteristics of individuals.
