Due to the increased capabilities of mobile devices and through wireless opportunistic contacts, users can experience new ways to share and retrieve content anywhere and anytime, even in the presence of link intermittency. Due to the significant number of available routing solutions, it is difficult to understand which one has the best performance, since all of them follow a different evaluation method. This paper proposes an assessment model, based on a new taxonomy, which comprises an evaluation guideline with performance metrics and experimental setup to aid designers in evaluating solutions through fair comparisons. Simulation results based on the proposed model revisit the performance results published by Epidemic, PROPHET, and BubbleRap, showing how they perform under the same set of metrics and scenario.
@cite_14: An exercise rowing machine of the type having a seat carriage movable along a track unit as the exerciser manipulates pivoted rowing arms in performing a standard rowing exercise is provided with a brake assembly on the seat carriage having a brake pad which can be selectively moved into and out of frictional braking engagement with the track unit to lock the seat carriage so that alternative exercises can be performed on the machine.
Zhang (2006) @cite_14 provides a classification with two main categories, deterministic and stochastic, which also considers the type of knowledge used for routing. The main goal is to solely categorize routing solutions based on the information used to perform data exchange.
