Demonstration Abstract: Wireless Ad Hoc Podcasting

Abstract

Podcasting has become a very popular and successful Internet service in a short time. This success illustrates the interest for participatory broadcasting, in its actual form however, podcasting is only available with fixed infrastructure support to retrieve publicized episodes. We aim at releasing this limitation and present herein our podcasting system architecture together with a prototype implementation based on opportunistic wireless networking that allows us to extend podcasting to ad hoc domains.
