Sulma Rashid, Qaisar Ayub, M. Soperi Mohd Zahid, A.Hanan. Abdullah . Impact of Mobility Models on DLA (Drop Largest) Optimized DTN Epidemic Routing Protocol. International Journal of Computer Applications. 18, 5 ( March 2011), 35-39. DOI=10.5120/2278-2950
DTN mobile nodes depend on their mobility to carry the message to destination. Therefore it is important to understand the effect of buffer management policies on the performance of DTN routing protocols under different mobility models. In our previous work of DLA we examine that epidemic router was not showing good delivery probability in case of SPMBM. This paper is the performance of DLA (drop largest) and DOA (Drop oldest) buffer management policy with impact of varying mobility models under epidemic routing protocol. We show that how combination of mobility models and queuing mechanism can optimize the performance of epidemic routing protocol in term of delivery probability, message dropped, buffer time average, overhead ratio and hop count averages.
