Abstract:Real life applications of Delay-tolerant Networks (DTNs) are evolving rapidly in many medical, environmental and engineering fields. DTN supports networking where the existence of contemporaneous communication links between the nodes is not guaranteed.In fact, DTN nodes are usually deployed in extreme terrestrial or spatial environments that lack continuous network connectivity. The nodes can range from sophisticated devices with abundant resources such as those used in interplanetary networks to small devices… Show more
