Several experiments have been conducted in the past ten years to collect human mobility data and to evaluate its impact
on routing protocols.
A first small experiment was conducted in 2005 by collecting human mobility traces in a conference environment [2].
Following this, several studies have focused on comparing different datasets and studying the impact of the derived human
mobility patterns on the design of routing protocols [5–7]. The study of these mobility-enabled networks, such as the one
presented in [2], has also lead to the definition of new temporal distance metrics to quantify the speed of information
diffusion processes, see for instance [8]. In [9], the authors studied an urban setting (Cambridge, UK) but relied on a rather
small group of students.
