Abstract

In this demo, we describe the design and implementation of fbDTN, a gateway that allow users to access Facebook services over a Disruption Tolerant Network (DTN) in a convenient and secure manner. Our system enables users to read their news feed, post status updates and photos, and comment and like the posts of other people. We also show the importance of supporting applications like this in a DTN and allow demo session attendees to see this system in action.
