Abstract

This work introduces a recommender system designed to augment the information discovery and dissemination in mobile networks. We use the system to optimize the podcast providing mechanism of the HyCast application. The presented recommender system is based on collaborative filtering and provides two different algorithms to determine similar network neighbors, which are used to incrementally build up a locally stored model for the final prediction calculation.
