Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.
  • Other customers can use the printer u90203-psc3. All printing is subject to a charge to non-University members.

Abstract (eng): Internet technology, as well as other networking technologies, is running based on some assumptions, such as the existence of an end-to-end path between source and destination, low data loss rate, utilizing a packet-switching mechanism in communication and end devices supporting the TCP/IP protocol suite.
However, these assumptions may not hold in the emerging challenged networks such as mobile ad-hoc networks.
Thus, new solutions are needed to address the arising problem in challenged environments.
Delay-tolerant Networking (DTN) approach is one robust way to enable communication in the environments with high delay and frequent disruption.

Due to the challenged environments, DTN nodes have limited contact opportunities to forward messages.
Therefore, the message delivery ratio of DTN networks is always lower compared to that of the traditional Internet.
With the intention of enhancing the network performance and increasing the message delivery ratio, we deploy a set of infrastructure nodes, which are called message repositories (MRs), into DTN networks.
MRs are the normal DTN nodes with infrastructure connectivity and supporting specific message exchange mechanism.
When a mobile user connects to a MR, they are able to retrieve messages which they are not hold from each other following a specific message exchange procedure.

We evaluate the performance of the MR scheme by means of simulation.
We expect to figure out in which cases, and by how much the MR increases the message delivery rate and shortens the message delivery delay in DTN networks.
We unitize an urban scenario with multiple environmental variables for our simulation.
The most important environmental variables include underlying DTN routing protocols, the number of MRs and MRCs, node buffer size, etc.
Furthermore, we compare the performance of multiple message exchange mechanisms of MR scheme in our simulation.
