| Abstract | Nowadays, the Wi-Fi Direct technology is supported by most of smartphones on the market, and provides a viable solution to guarantee opportunistic communication among group of devices in a 1-hop range. However, the current specifications of the standard do not support the inter-group communication, which constitutes a key requirement for content-delivery applications like the public safety ones. In this paper, we provide an in-depth analysis of the utilization of the Wi-Fi Direct technology for safety message dissemination over emergency and post-disaster scenarios. Three main contributions are provided. First, we show the experimental results of the Wi-Fi Direct technology on a test-bed composed of multiple heterogeneous smartphones, and we analyze the main factors affecting the system performance, like the network setup overhead, the communication range and the network throughput. Second, we investigate how to create multi-group Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks by leveraging on the presence of P2P relay devices, which are in charge of offloading the data among different P2P groups, although being connected to only one P2P group at a time. An analytical model is proposed in order to derive the optimal group switching time which provides the best trade-off between the multihop delay and the delivery rate, by taking into account the buffer size of the P2P Group Owners (GO) devices. Finally, we describe the implementation of the network formation algorithm within the Emergency Direct mobile application, which allows the multi-hop dissemination of instantaneous and geo-localized alert messages among the smartphones located in the scenario of the emergency. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
