Towards social behaviors integration in mobile networks

In our area of Mobile Multimedia, the expansion of wireless networks is dazzling and mobility has become a major issue exacerbated by the significant increase in the number of mobile users.A node operating in a basic mobile network behaves the same way a blind person moving in our universe by developing its own representation with his stick, a mechanism known in the literature as terminal mobility. To reduce this blindness, several methods have been developed that are based on location services and mobility models.A mobility model is then intended to describe in terms of environment, the motion criteria of mobile nodes with the challenge to find models faithful to user behavior.Random models are biased because mobile devices are supported by social beings. This led us to include social elements in our models.We present the existing mobility models and classify them.We define our models, implement them and measure their impact on the network testing.Finally we expand our spectrum by showing that granting social grouping perception to a network routing protocol, can improve its performance.
