Identify the best location to place data based on social interaction in opportunistic network

Opportunistic networking is an evolution of Ad hoc mobile communication paradigm. Sharing information in opportunistic networks is challenging due to intermittent connectivity, short connection durations and a highly dynamic topology. Numbers of researches have proposed data dissemination approach to increase the chances of delivering information to the destination node with the minimum duration of time. This paper presents the mechanism of identifying the best location based on social interaction to increasing the data dissemination successful rate in opportunistic network. From the simulation results, we found that in the high density population, placing data based on identified location increases the data exchange between nodes about 38% compared to random data placement. Therefore placing data in the right place contribute the effective of data dissemination among mobile nodes.
