Merging of Epidemic SIR Model and Semi Markovfor Correlated Node Behavior in MANETs
Authors: , ,
Abstract: Correlated node behavior poses a great challenge for normal functioning of mobile ad hoc network. The impact could be devastating if the spreading of correlated node behavior will result in network failure. We model correlated node behavior by merging the principle of epidemic model and semi Markov process. Under merging condition, node behavior transition and epidemic model is converge to capture correlated node behavior. The focus of this work is to predict correlated node behavior spreads to entire network. Through modeling and analysis, the results show general applicability in understanding the spreading rate of correlated node behavior.
