Abstract

We describe the challenges, design decisions, and implementation details behind a proof-of-concept application that uses social networking to demonstrate the feasibility behind Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) principles. For the main platform, we use DTN2, an implementation of DTN protocols designed for experimentation, production, and deployment. Although this application is specific to Twitter, it is easily modifiable to adapt to other social networks.
