ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure provides a method for delay tolerant networking. According to one exemplary embodiment, the method may include transmitting a file from a first node associated with a first network to at least one intermediate node via a file-system interface. The method may also include receiving the file at the at least one intermediate node via the file system interface. The method may further include transmitting the file from the at least one intermediate node to at least one node of an additional network via the file-system interface and receiving the file at the at least one node of the additional network via the file-system interface. Of course, additional embodiments, variations and modifications are possible without departing from this embodiment.
