Resumen:
The widespread availability of smartphones with
wireless communication and geo-positioning capabilities has
open new opportunities to services for casual passersby, e.g. the
delivery of advertising when they visit a certain area. Typically
such messages are delivered to cellular phones, consuming thus
part of the energy of these devices. Since these devices are
constrained in battery-energy, disseminating messages using little
energy represents a challenge for designers of this type of
solutions. This paper presents a study based on simulations that
intends to identify good strategies to irradiate messages
collaboratively, minimizing the energy consumption in the
devices involved in the information exchange. The simulation
results show that the best irradiation strategy will depend on the
number of devices in the area to be irradiated. Moreover, such a
strategy will have more influence if the devices are dispersed.
These findings should help designers of mobile collaborative
applications based on messages irradiation, to identify the best
dissemination strategy depending on the current network
context.
