Abstract
Routing in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs) benefits considerably if one can take advantage of knowledge concerning node mobility. The main contribution of this paper is the definition of a generic routing scheme for DTNs using a high-dimensional Euclidean space constructed upon nodes' mobility patterns. For example, nodes are represented as points having as coordinates their probability of being found in each possible location. We present simulation results indicating that such a scheme can be beneficial in a scenario inspired by studies done on real mobility traces. This work should open the way to further use of the virtual space formalism in DTN routing.
