We formulate the delay-tolerant networking routing problem, where messages are to be moved end-to-end across a connectivity graph that is time-varying but whose dynamics may be known in advance. The problem has the added constraints of finite buffers at each node and the general property

an alternative to traditional approaches called Tapestry. Tapestry is an overlay location and routing infrastructure that provides location-independent routing of messages directly to the closest copy of an object or service using only point-to-point links and without centralized resources. The routing

forwarding combined with GLS compares favorably with Dynamic Source Routing (DSR): in larger networks (over 200 nodes) our approach delivers more packets, but consumes fewer network resources.

We present an overview of ad-hoc routing protocols that make forwarding decisions based on the geographical position of a packet's destination. Other than the destination 's position, each node needs to know only its own position and the position of its one-hop neighbors in order

In addition to maintaining the GenBankÒ nucleic acid sequence database, the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) provides analysis and retrieval resources for the data in GenBank and other biological data made available through NCBI’s Web site. NCBI resources include Entrez,

-state approach, two-way signaling message exchanges, receiver-based resource reservation, and being independent from all other related components in a QOS support architecture, such as flow-specification, admission control, scheduling algorithm, and routing. As stated in the article, “RSVP is primarily a vehicle

Grid technologies enable large-scale sharing of resources within formal or informal consortia of individuals and/or institutions: what are sometimes called virtual organizations. In these settings, the discovery, characterization, and monitoring of resources, services, and computations

or compromised nodes from tampering with uncompromised routes consisting of uncompromised nodes, and also prevents many types of Denial-of-Service attacks. In addition, Ariadne is efficient, using only highly efficient symmetric cryptographic primitives.

Structured peer-to-peer overlay networks provide a sub-strate for the construction of large-scale, decentralized applications, including distributed storage, group com-munication, and content distribution. These overlays are highly resilient; they can route messages correctly even when a large

capsules enable the deploy-ment of ad-hoc routing and data aggregation algorithms. Maté's concise, high-level program representation simplifies programming and allows large networks to be frequently re-programmed in an energy-efficient manner; in addition, its safe execution environment suggests a use
