EmerGence: a delay tolerant web application for disaster relief
Paul U., Nekrasov M., Belding E.  HotMobile 2019 (Proceedings of the 20th International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications, Santa Cruz, CA, Feb 27-28, 2019)167-167.2019.Type:Proceedings
Date Reviewed: Jun 19 2019

Providing communication services in disaster-affected areas is important. The authors introduce an app for such situations that runs on the back of networks powered by unmanned aircraft systems (drones). Such a system is designed to tolerate long communication delays to a mobile edge server.

The authors show preliminary proof points that measure the efficacy of the solution. Their preliminary results show metrics for loading posts from the local browser cache, loading them from delayed networks, and posting messages to networks with congestion delays.

The authors have started on this process of evaluating optimal transmission policies under poor network conditions. We need more solutions to effectively provide essential services in disaster areas.
