Opportunistic, delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) address the problem of intermittent connectivity in a network where there are long delays between sending and receiving messages, or there are periods of disconnection. Advances in Delay-Tolerant Networks, Second Edition reviews the technology involved and the prospects for improving performance. Part I reviews the different types of DTN and their applications, including satellite and deep-space communications and vehicular communications. Part II then focuses on how the technology can be further improved, addressing such topics as data bundling, opportunistic routing, reliable data streaming, and the potential for rapid selection and dissemination of urgent messages. Advances in Delay-Tolerant Networks, Second Edition provides an important overview for researchers in electronics, computer engineering, telecommunications and networking for those in academia and R&D in industrial sectors. Reviews the different types of DTN and shows how they can be applied in satellite and deep-space communications, vehicular communications including unmanned aerial , and during large-scale disastersConsiders security concerns for DTN and potential for rapid selection and dissemination of urgent messagesReviews the breadth of areas in which DTN is already providing solutions and the prospects for its wider adoption and development of standards INDICE: 1.
