Abstract:

In the aftermath of natural disasters (e.g., earthquakes and hurricanes), information dissemination to and from citizens and authorities often involves the use of mobile network services. They may do so to seek help, distribute critical information, and possibly to confirm the safety of relatives and friends. The traffic on the cellular network typically increases substantially in the aftermath of such disasters. The situation is further compounded by disruptions caused by damage to the network infrastructure and the non-availability of power. Networks are fragmented, and communication is intermittent and disruption prone. In this paper, we propose a name-based many-to-many communication service for such fragmented networks. The key feature of this service is an integration of several communication methods, such as push-based and pull-based. The service effectively supports a variety of network situations by leveraging the features of information-centric networks.
