      abstract = {"A class of Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN), which may  violate one or more of the assumptions regarding the  overall performance characteristics of the underlying links  in order to achieve smooth operation, is rapidly growing in  importance but may not be well served by the current  end-to-end TCP/IP model. Delay Tolerant Networks: Protocols  and Applications takes you on a systematic exploration of  DTN concepts, architectures, protocols, enabling  technologies, and applications.Containing a wealth of  illustrative material for ease of understanding, this  one-stop reference discusses the various challenges  associated with DTN. Written for a broad audience of  researchers and practitioners, it supplies useful reference  material for graduate students and senior undergraduate  students in courses of networking, wireless, and mobile  communications. Starting with an accessible introduction to  DTNs, their architecture, bundle protocols, and routing  schemes, the book provides authoritative coverage of:DTN  RoutingEnergy-Aware Routing Protocol for DTNsA  Routing-Compatible Credit-Based Incentive SchemeR-P2P: a  Data-Centric Middleware for Delay Tolerant  ApplicationsMobile Peer-to-Peer Systems over  DTNsDelay-Tolerant Monitoring of Mobility-Assisted  WSNMessage Dissemination in Vehicular NetworksDTN Protocols  for Space CommunicationsDTN for Satellite  CommunicationsReporting on the latest developments in these  domains, the distinguished panel of contributors supplies a  realistic look into the future of networking. Complete with  sections that summarize open issues in each domain, this  book arms you with the understanding and methods required  to make an impact on the advancement of these emerging  networks that continue to grow in importance.
