Designing Delay-Tolerant Applications for Store-and-Forward Networks

This exciting book explores motivation, characteristics, and examples how network application engineers benefit from new store-and-forward protocols. The motivating factors that caused delay tolerant networks (DTNs) to be standardized are discussed, as well as the unique nature of applications running within a DTN. The underpinnings of DTN development are explored, including space-based networking, Internet of Things communications, and delayed-overlays as a means of achieving quality-of-service
