While such means are essential to overcome distances, using infrastructure services for location-based services may not be desirable. In this paper, we analyze a fully distributed variant of an ephemeral content sharing service, solely dependent on the mobile devices in the vicinity using principles of opportunistic networking. The net result is a best effort service for floating content in which: 1) information dissemination is geographically limited; 2) the lifetime and spreading of information depends on interested nodes being available; 3) content can only be created and distributed locally; and 4) content can only be added, but not explicitly deleted. First we present our system design and summarize its analytical modeling. Then we perform extensive evaluation for a map-based mobility model in downtown Helsinki to assess the operational range for floating content, which, at the same time also validate the analytical results obtained for a more abstract model of the system.}, url = {https://www.comsys.rwth-aachen.de/fileadmin/papers/2011/2011-percom-vaegs-floatingcontent.pdf}, misc2 = {Online}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ, USA}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 9th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications (PerCom 2011), Seattle, WA, USA}, event_place = {Seattle, USA}, event_name = {9th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications}, event_date = {March 21 - 25, 2011}, language = {en}, ISBN = {978-1-4244-9529-0}, reviewed = {1}, author = {Ott, J{\"o}rg and Hyyti{\"a}, Esa and Lassila, Pasi and Vaegs, Tobias and Kangasharju, Jussi} }
