This paper provides an introductory overview of Vehicular Delay-Tolerant Networks. First, an
introduction to Delay-Tolerant Networks and Vehicular Delay-Tolerant Networks is given …

Satellite communications are characterized by long delays, packet losses, and sometimes
intermittent connectivity and link disruptions. The TCP/IP stack is ineffective against these …

We define an opportunistic network as one type of challenged networks where network
contacts are intermittent or where link performance is highly variable or extreme. In such a …

Advances in Delay-Tolerant Networks: Architecture and Enhanced Performance, Second
Edition provides an important overview of delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) for researchers in …

In recent years there has been a strong desire in the US Department of Defense to augment
traditional ground and satellite communications with a high capacity aerial tier. High …

NATO Network Enabled Capability is first and foremost about achieving better interaction
between the different actors involved in military operations. This implies more efficient …

The current Internet protocol (IP) architecture model for mobile ad hoc network (MANET)
routing protocol development ignores cross-layer effects by seeking to emulate as closely as …

Delay and disruption tolerant networking (DTN) is an exciting research topic that has
attracted increasing attention from many researchers. It focuses on the design, construction …

The communication paradigms for delay-tolerant networking have been modeled after
email. Supporting email over DTNs in a backwards compatible manner in a heterogeneous …

Standard applications are unable to perform well in delay-and disruption-tolerant networks
(DTNs) due to frequent lack of end-to-end connectivity and long communication delays …
