Abstract :
This paper proposes a platform for building an ad hoc network, using the Wi-Fi direct technology in a Delay-Tolerant Network (DTN) environment. In this platform, a multi-agent system is used for solving the device-to-device connection, and for improving the efficiency of communication. In order to evaluate the feasibility of the proposed platform, a prototype android application is developed and tested in a straightforward experiment.
