Context Delivery in Ad Hoc Networks Using Enhanced Gossiping Algorithms

The dissemination of context data across a pervasive environment has proven to be a difficult problem. Techniques using gossiping algorithms offer simplicity and flexibility but often result in poor performance with respect to timeliness of delivery and communication cost. In this ongoing work, we present enhanced gossiping algorithms that aim to improve the efficiency of context data delivery in a decentralised manner using network and data-driven approaches.
