MONAC: SNS message dissemination over smartphone-based DTN and cloud

In this work, we implemented a messaging system called MONAC, by which users can disseminate Twitter messages via smartphone-based DTN. MONAC is implemented on an overlay network middleware called PIAX. We extended PIAX to enable DTN with dynamic selection of available underlay network and seamless authentication for SNS account of cloud. By these mechanisms, messages can be disseminated via DTN on heterogeneous underlay networks without falsification and user ID frauds.
