What is it about?
Social Opportunistic Networks suffer from fundamental communication issues. This paper proposes an optimal protocol to resolve those issues by applying a heuristic scheme for routing messages. The protocol is based on the biological behavior of ant movement.

Why is it important?
Our simulations proved that efficient communication can be established between many devices by studying the patterns of human social behavior. Our protocol is always able to find an optimal path in the network, over some time. Thus, the fundamental issues in wireless communication have been addressed.
Perspectives
I hope the research community builds on our work to further improve wireless communication amongst various classes of devices.
