This textbook reviews the theory, applications, and latest breakthroughsin Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs). Presenting a specific focus on OpportunisticMobile Networks (OMNs), the text considers the influence of human aspects, andexamines emerging forms of inter-node cooperation. Features: containsreview terms and exercises in each chapter, with the solutions and source codeavailable at an associated website; introduces the fundamentals of DTNs, covering OMNs, PSNs,and MOONs; describes the ONE simulator, explaining how to set up a simulationproject; provides detailed insights into the development and testing ofprotocols, together with a set of best practices for increased productivity andoptimized performance; examines human aspects in the context of communicationnetworks, from human-centric applications to the impact of emotion onhuman-network interplay; proposes various schemes for inter-node cooperation inDTNs/OMNs; presents a detailed discussion on aspects of heterogeneity inDTNs.

I've been working on opportunistic networking since a friend was caught up in a disaster zone after a tsunami and couldn't use his smart phone, as the net was down, yet there were many devices around the town which had wireless and could store, carry, and forward messages, but no protocols to implement this useful service. This book covers in clear and up-to-date style, the principles and practice of the main communications mechanisms to date, and offers helpful exercises and useful information on how to implement these systems in practice.
