Abstract

Over the past decade, online social networks (OSNs) such as Twitter and Facebook have thrived and experienced rapid growth to over 1 billion users [1]. A major evolution would be to leverage the characteristics of OSNs to evaluate the effectiveness of the many routing schemes developed by the research community in real-world scenarios. In natural disaster situations, Internet and cellular communication infrastructures can be severely disrupted, prohibiting users from notifying family, friends, and associates about safety, location, food, water, and other resources. Disasters typically damage infrastructure, which increases network traffic demands on any available undamaged infrastructure, causing congestion and delays.
