We consider the critical percolation threshold for aligned cylinders, which provides a lower bound for the required node degree for the permanence of information in opportunistic networking. The height of a cylinder corresponds to the time a node is active in its current location. By means of Monte Carlo simulations, we obtain an accurate numerical estimate for the critical reduced number density, ηc ≈ 0.3312(1) for constant height cylinders. This threshold is the same for all ratios of the…

Criticality of large delay tolerant networks via directed continuum percolation in space-time

Under the given assumptions, it is shown that DTN communication is feasible when the mean node degree ν is greater than 4 · η<sub>c</sub>(γ), where parameter γ=ℓ/d is the ratio of the distance ℓ to the transmission range d, and η(sub)</sub) is the critical reduced number density of tilted cylinders in a directed continuum percolation model.

Bond percolation on simple cubic lattices with extended neighborhoods.

The results show that the percolation thresholds of these and other three-dimensional lattices decrease monotonically with the coordination number z quite accurately according to a power-law p_{c}∼z^{-a} with exponent a=1.111.

Site percolation on square and simple cubic lattices with extended neighborhoods and their continuum limit.

By means of extensive Monte Carlo simulation, extended-range site percolation on square and simple cubic lattices with various combinations of nearest neighbors up to the eighth nearest neighbors for the square lattice and the ninth nearestNeighborhoods are found using a single-cluster growth algorithm.

A Percolation-Based Approach to Model DTN Congestion Control

This paper proposes a novel modeling framework based on directed site-bond percolation where sites represent space-time positions of DTN nodes, and bonds are contact opportunities, i.e. Communication links that can be established whenever nodes come in range of each other.
