• Theoretical Work
– mathematical tools and optimization techniques - very limited
• Architecture
– very little work explaining the required architecture in order to
support D2D communications in cellular networks[5]
• Application
– First introduced for relay now have lots of applications: P2P,
Multicasting, Cellular Offloading etc.
– Could have more application especially in social networking,
location-aware services
• Performance analysis
– Studies are still far from reality
