Delay tolerant networks (DTNs) are characterized by the absence of the end-to-end path
due to intermittent connectivity among the nodes. Such networks are potentially applicable …

The space environment is still challenging but is becoming more and more attractive for an
increasing number of entities. In the second half of the 20th century, a huge amount of funds …

A Space Internet is possible, as long as the delay and disruption challenges imposed by the
space environment are properly tackled. Because these conditions are not well addressed …

As the typical delay tolerant networks, the satellite networks possess the intermittent
connections, the large-scale time delays and the time-varying topologies. Obviously, such …

Abstract Delay-Tolerant Networks (DTN) enable store-carry-and-forward data transmission
in networks challenged by frequent disruptions and high latency. Existing classification …

Delay-tolerant networking (DTN) offers a novel architecture that can be used to enhance
store-carry-forward routing in satellite networks. Since these networks can take advantage of …

The Interplanetary Network (IPN) or the Interplanetary Internet is a network composed of
interconnected space objects, which are in turn connected to mission control stations on the …

Abstract Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) has been proposed for satellite networks with no
expectation of continuous or instantaneous end-to-end connectivity, which are known as …

Existing Internet protocols assume persistent end-to-end connectivity, which cannot be
guaranteed in disruptive and high-latency space-terrestrial networks. To operate over these …

The High-Rate Delay Tolerant Networking (HDTN) project has taken a distributed service-
based approach to the development of a highly efficient delay tolerant networking (DTN) …
