Abstract :
In this paper we study information diffusion in a mobile encounter network, where information is transferred from a mobile device to another during device encounters using short-range radio communication. The feasibility of application use and the outlines of potential applications are given. A simulation model for evaluating the network performance is described. The simulation results suggest that the logistic function may be used to model the diffusion when there are no high requirements for model accuracy.
