“…Particularly, the problem of multi-copy data dissemination with probabilistic delay constraint in opportunistic D2D communication is more challenging problem [71]. The multi-copy content dissemination can be reduced to a single content dissemination to figure out the effect of mobility in D2D communication [196], [197]. The mobility factors comprise of user interaction depending on time and location.…”

Device-to-device (D2D) communication proposes a new epitome in mobile networking to avail data exchange between physically proximate devices. The exploitation of D2D communication enables mobile operators to harvest short range communications for improving network performance and corroborating proximity-based services. In this article, we investigate mobility aspects of D2D communication, which are indispensable for the adoption and implementation of D2D communication technology. We present an extensive review of the state-of-theart problems and the corresponding solutions for encouraging the exploitation of mobility to assist D2D communication. Specifically, by identifying the mobility models, traces, problems, requirements, and features of different proposals, we discuss the lessons learned and summarize the advantages of mobility-aware D2D communication. We also present open problems and highlight future research directions concerning D2D communication applications in real-life scenarios. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive survey to address mobility-aware D2D communication, which offers insight to the underlying problems and provides the potential solutions. Index Terms-Device-to-device communication, mobility, mobile communication, mobile data traffic. I. INTRODUCTION D EVICE-to-device (D2D) communication takes the advantage of opportunistic encounters by mobile users with each other [1]. These opportunistic encounters' information between users are highly related to their movement. By exploiting users' movement, D2D enabled applications and services visualize highly opportunistic and unpredictable human mobility. Therefore, the challenges of exploiting mobility resides in the inherent complexity of users' mobility. It is mainly concerns with predicting the establishment of communication links among D2D users. For instance, two mobile users can establish a link at the time when they are in close proximity to each other. However, there are two key questions have to M.

Moreover, the interactions between mobile node N i , ∀i ∈ N , and fog node F j , ∀j ∈ F are based on inter-contact time, contact rate, and contact duration which is defined as the following definitions [83], [84].…”

Fog computing is an epitome to enable provisioning resources and services beyond the cloud, at the edge of the network, and nearer to end devices. Fog computing is not a counterfeit for cloud computing but a persuasive counterpart. However, the mobility of end users and/or fog nodes brings a major dilemma in the implementation of real-life scenarios. Therefore, we deliver the state-of-the-art research about mobility in fog computing. By identifying the mobility problems, requirements, and features of different proposals, we discover the open problems from subsisting studies and summarize the advantages of mobility for readers. This will help the researchers and developers avoid the current misapprehensions and capture the real-life scenarios, such as business, government, and education institutions. In spite of the extensive state-of-the-art research work, we also present the diverse mobility factors to investigate the correlation between dynamic nodes with fog nodes in order to accomplish better successful tasks. We conceive that the investigations of mobility factors in the fog computing will furnish the novel perspective on not only dynamic connections but also network dynamics. To revolutionize the follow-up research, we distinguish and foreground futurity directions concerning real-life scenarios of people and vehicles in a dynamic fog environment.

“…Therefore, D2D communication is an enabling technology to assist overburdened cellular networks by improving spectrum efficiency, throughput, network coverage and delay [3]. Most of the studies have focused on various technical problems in D2D communication, including mode selection [4], resource allocation [5], [6] and interference management [7]. However, D2D security under the PLS technique in term of key generation, and by leveraging social ties that can unify security solutions is not yet matured [8].…”

Physical layer security (PLS) is a promising technology in device-to-device (D2D) communications by exploiting reciprocity and randomness of wireless channels, which attracts considerable research attention in the D2D communications community. In this paper, we investigated PLS for secure key generation rate (SKGR) in D2D communications based on cooperative trusted and non-trusted relays. By leveraging social ties, we exploit three social phenomena for secure communications, i.e., trusted scenario (social trust), non-trusted scenario (social reciprocity) and partially trusted scenario (mixed social trust and social reciprocity). The coalition game theory is further utilized to select the optimal relay pairs for improving SKGR. On the basis of social ties, we develop an algorithm for SKGR that protects the keys secret from both eavesdropper and nontrusted selected relays. We incorporate secure relays selection and system wide security for D2D communications. The stability and convergence of the proposed algorithm are also proved in our work. Both numerically and analytically results verify effectiveness and consistency of our proposed scheme, which ensures better SKGR performance in D2D communications.
