Is there any kind-of-"white paper"?<br /><br />For example, some points I am curious about are: what happens in a longer-term deployment? Won't the storage get exhausted? Imagine that a whole town is using a Serval mesh in a sudden crisis (not only humanitarian workers), so lots of messages are going around; what would happen?<br /><br />Also, IIRC the Serval mesh had implemented some kind of "delete-message" to tell the network to delete a stored message that had been successfully delivered. But, is that the only mechanism? And how effective is it? Delete-messages themselves also have to use up space and bookkeeping time, no? <br />And, what happens when a node with little storage keeps contacting nodes with larger storage?<br /><br />What about use cases where a node expects to work on a rather well-connected network vs a node that could be dedicated to relay messages between two otherwise disconnected networks (kind-of-automated-sneakernet)? I read about the message-from-Africa experiment, but does Serval distinguish the use cases?<br /><br />I am currently taking part in Techfugees, a series of hackathons to try to help the refugee situation in Europe. I was dismayed to see that mesh networking is still in its infancy - somehow I had assumed it was rather robust already! Alas, for mobile phones only toy examples seem to be available. So glad to see that the Serval Project exists and still works on the subject! I hope to be able to contribute at some moment...Horacio Mijailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10941261506308268725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9068638994894102968.post-26405369304413355542013-08-19T11:34:59.488-07:002013-08-19T11:34:59.488-07:00Very helpful article thanks for sharing some point...Very helpful article thanks for sharing some points are related to <a href="http://www.reachplus.com/" rel="nofollow"> emergency mass notification software </a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06626255208450607496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9068638994894102968.post-10568108589022812142013-03-27T08:14:05.104-07:002013-03-27T08:14:05.104-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Thomas McDonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031212352097289478noreply@blogger.com
