Today, people predominately rely on the Internet and cellular networks, and interplanetary networks. While this new form network, as well as the plain old telephone system, to com- of communication has created great interest in the research municate with each other. Typically, these communication community, it is still in its infancy in terms of emerging services are built from fixed wired or wireless infrastructure, communications architectures, algorithms, protocols, tools, where the “next hop” is known in advance, well engineered modeling, and standards. As yet there has been “no killer and its performance in terms of delay, throughput, and loss app” that has emerged other than the grand challenge of characteristics has been well studied. Over the last decade, interplanetary communications or niche deployments in a new paradigm in end-to-end communications has sensor networks or mobile human-centric experimental emerged, mostly in academia and industrial research labo- networks. However, these networks show great promise ratories, based on the notion that the next hop between a in terms of their fully decentralized design making them extremely robust. They also offer the potential for huge sender and receiver is not known in advance. These networks, typically called opportunistic and delay-tolerant networks, are bandwidth gains in contrast to other forms of networks (e.g., characterized as opportunistic because, like nodes in mobile MANETs or the existing cellular network) but at the cost of ad hoc networking infrastructure, the forwarding nodes are higher end-to-end delays. mobile and dynamic—they come and go in unpredictable The duality of higher bandwidth gains over short-lived ways. In this case, it is very hard to make strong statements next-hop connections and longer end-to-end delays, coupled about the type of service opportunistic networks will offer with the spontaneous creation of dynamic networks, has the user. Opportunistic nodes collectively form dynamic captured the imagination of networking researchers. The networks that are built from short unpredictable contact papers in this special issue, which was promoted under the times as nodes move in and out of connectivity. Unlike auspices of the EC-funded Network of Excellence in Wireless mobile ad hoc networks, which aim to offer a frequently Communications (in particular, the Work Package WPR.11 available connected path through a dynamic network, oppor- on Opportunistic Networks), address a number of the issues tunistic networks only offer a store and forward service and challenges discussed above. We received a total of 23 high-quality submissions. The papers came from different in a mostly disconnected network comprised of infrequent regions around the world and addressed many different contact times between nodes—therefore, these networks aim to find the next “storage node” toward the destination as aspects of research. Each paper was reviewed by three or a primary communications service. Because of this, most more experts, who evaluated the technical content and applications have to be delay tolerant in nature, hence the suitability of the paper for publication in this special issue. As Guest Editors of the special issue we had the very difficult name: opportunistic and delay-tolerant networks. Many applications of opportunistic and delay-tolerant job of selecting only 10 papers from those submitted. networks are being actively studied, for example, networks The papers of this special issue cover both practical purely comprised of people carrying devices that only use and theoretical aspects of opportunistic and delay-tolerant short range radios, wildlife-based mobile low-power sensor networking.

More specifically, they suggest the use of to improvements of communication techniques. Quwaider a scalar parameter that captures a node’s social behavior in et al. propose a new modeling framework for routing terms of frequency and types of encounters.

The idea is to the proposed scheme is confirmed through the examination consider possible disconnections due to postural parti- of vehicular traces. Finally, Samuel et al. address routing tioning. Several experimentations and simulation studies from the point of view of self-organizing structures. They show that the model is representative of situations found propose an improvement over a companion work on the in reality. In the context of natural sciences, Rutishauser use of super nodes to provide seamless communications for et al. propose a monitoring system to observe wildlife in roaming users over interconnected heterogeneous wireless their natural habitat.

The improvement consists in including a better consists of a set of sensors carried by animals and static understanding of node mobility into the model, which leads collectors whose role is to gather readings to be sent on the to a better strategy as shown by the authors in the paper. Internet. The particularity of the proposed architecture is to deal with intermittent connectivity in an efficient way. Acknowledgments Soares et al. address the problem of data collection when the network does not have sufficient density to operate We would like to take this opportunity to thank the authors using traditional communication solutions. The authors of all submitted papers for considering our special issue for propose an original strategy that relies on replication to disseminating their work. We are also very grateful to the circumvent the constraints introduced by disconnections. numerous referees who spent their own time to review the Through implementation and simulation, the authors show manuscripts in a responsive and accurate way: this definitely that the proposed strategy leads to improved delivery ratios. helped improve the quality of the papers that have been eventually accepted. We would also like to thank the staff Wang et al. focus on the especially challenging DTN scenario of interplanetary communications. Extreme distances that of Hindawi for their valuable assistance through the entire translate into long link delays and frequent link disruptions editing process, and the Editor-in-Chief of the journal, Luc characterize such a scenario. The authors investigate the Vandendorpe, for trusting us with this important assignment DTN architecture with a bundle protocol (BP) running over and helping us to fulfill it successfully. Last but not least, we the TCP-based convergence layer (TCPCL) protocol and thank the members of NEWCOM++ for their collaboration show that the goodput rate is more dictated by disruption in submitting high-quality papers to this special issue. delays than bit error rate. P´ rennou et al. present the last e Sergio Palazzo paper of this first group. They propose triggers on top of Andrew T. Campbell the KauNet emulator to evaluate the reaction of applications Marcelo Dias de Amorim and protocols to lower layer events. The main contributions of this work are the integration of the DTN reference implementation and the emulation of a DTN data-mule scenario. The second group of papers reports recent advances on theoretical aspects of opportunistic and delay-tolerant networks. Castro et al. consider the interesting scenario of peer-to-peer file sharing in delay-tolerant rural scenarios. The authors compare two schemes initially conceived for general wireless networks and show that they apply to an opportunistic situation when replication is used as a substrate for lookup. Through a number of simulations, the authors show the suitability of the schemes under a number of situations. Kubo et al. also consider peer-to- peer networking but in the case of multicast communications running on mobile nodes. They propose a new strategy for resource allocation at nodes that considers a single parameter called relay ability, which is in fact a combination of avail- able bandwidth, disconnection rate, and remaining battery capacity. Simulation results show the interest of the proposed scheme. Also in the context of resource optimization, Zhang et al. analyze the efficiency of opportunistic relaying under different realistic radio channel conditions. In particular, the authors provide the lower bound that corresponds to the best tradeoff between energy and latency minimization. Fabbri et al. focus on the most fundamental problem of opportunistic and delay-tolerant networking, that is routing. The authors
