SUMMARY

Hybrid communication architectures are network infrastructures from Smartphones which combine opportunistic and broadband networking. This project aims at studying the fundamental trade-offs involved in designing a hybrid communication architecture. The goal is to bring modern communication services to populations in remote communities with sparse and patchy communication infrastructure.
