Opportunistic Social Network Experiments

This paper presents the pre-misses of a new modular framework and a large scale experiment that we will launch for social opportunistic networks. The new framework aims at activating specific protocols depending on the application requirements. The experiment involves several students who will be equipped with PDA. Our goal is to study how the social interaction between users impact the behavior of opportunistic routing algorithms. By presenting this experiment, we are looking for the feedback from the community and to extend our experiment to other universities/campus.
