Selection of better strategy for Self Organized Data Aggregation Techniques using Evolutionary Game Theory

Self Organized Data Aggregation Technique applying Evolutionary Game Theory is one of the most effective methods to select the optimum strategy for Delay Tolerant Network (DTN). In DTN, reliable end-to-end data transfer is provided by custody transfer mechanism where special nodes (custodians) exchange information with custody following hop-by-hop manner. For multi cluster Delay Tolerant Network, message ferrying approach is considered here. Now, the strategy selection (to become an aggregator or sender) is considered as a game in Evolutionary Game Theory, where, each node will draw result after interaction. For strategy selection, Imitation Update Rule of Evolutionary Game Theory has been utilized. We will focus mainly on the Birth-Death and Death-Birth Update Rules of Evolutionary Game Theory and select the better Update rules among three update rules.
