Abstract
Methods provide advertisement delivery to a cluster of mobile devices with computer readable program code, when read by a processor, configured for identifying, among a plurality of mobile devices associated with a network, a cluster of two or more mobile devices. The identification may be based at least in part on a relative displacement of the two or more mobile devices during a period of time being less than a maximum relative displacement. The methods may further include displaying an advertising message on each mobile device in the cluster.

- determining a movement speed of the cluster;
- and
- displaying an advertising message on each mobile device in the cluster.
A method, comprising:
