Deep-space network channels are characterized “in part” by asymmetric channel rates. The
effect of the asymmetric channel rates is that the slow acknowledgement (ACK) channel …

Bundle protocol (BP) is the core protocol of delay/disruption-tolerant networking, which has
been recognized as the only candidate networking technology that approaches the level of …

For nearly 30 years the Hewlett Packard NonStop Enterprise Division (formerly Tandem
