Abstract: The system performance of the delay tolerant networks (DTN) can be significantly improved by using the DTN routing hierarchical topology (DRHT) which incorporates three fundamental concepts: ferries messages, ferries routes and clusters. The intra-cluster routing is managed by the cluster head, while the inter-cluster routing is managed by the ferries messages. In this paper, we analyse the behaviour of data dissemination problem of ferries in the DRHT. More specifically, in order to analyse the inter-cluster communication in the DRHT, we formulate non-cooperative game and game stochastic which model the behaviour of the ferries.
