About this Item

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Interplanetary Internet is a conceived computer network in space, consisting of a set of network nodes which can communicate with each other.Communication would be greatly delayed by the great interplanetary distances, so the IPN needs a new set of protocols and technology that are tolerant to large delays and errors. While the Internet as we know it tends to be a busy 'network of networks' with high traffic, negligible delay and errors, and a wired backbone, the Interplanetary Internet is a store-and-forward 'network of Internets' that is often disconnected, has a wireless backbone fraught with error-prone links and delays ranging to tens of minutes, even hours, even when there is a connection.
