901224_DelayTolerantNetworking : Home This page last changed on May 03, 2012 by chma. This is the home page for the 901224_DelayTolerantNetworking space. The goal of this project is to provide a concise report detailing the feasibility of extending traditional shore based Ethernet networking to the operating environment of ocean platforms. A unique class of network protocols known as Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) have been developed and distributed by the Delay Tolerant Networking Research Group. These protocols have been successfully applied to communicating with multiple platforms in the ocean (AUV's, buoys, etc.) by the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Porto. Referring to specific use cases derived from the CANON initiative and the Autonomy project this study will describe the utility of installing DTN technology on MBARI's ocean platforms and estimate the effort and cost required.
