Alleviating Bundle Throughput Constriction for Delay Tolerance Networking (DTN) Bundles with Software-Defined Networking (SDN)
A load-balancing technique is proposed, executed, and tested against a Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) implementation with well-known characteristics. This would prove that transparently inserting software defined networking (SDN) to achieve load balancing without re-configuring the DTN portion is possible. Two routes were taken to alleviate a DTN bottleneck threat. The first used a P4 networking switch. This manual load-balancing test will balance the incoming packets without the users at the end-points knowing that its original packet destination and/or source may have been changed. The second route utilized a High-rate Delay Tolerant Networking (HDTN) receiving node instead of the typical the delay tolerance networking (DTN) implementation used. Bench-marking results of the DTN implementation receiving node and the HDTN receiving node will be compared.

CFDP for Interplanetary Overlay Network
The CCSDS (Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems) File Delivery Protocol for Interplanetary Overlay Network (CFDP-ION) is an implementation of CFDP that uses IO' s DTN (delay tolerant networking) implementation as its UT (unit-data transfer) layer. Because the DTN protocols effect automatic, reliable transmission via multiple relays, CFDP-ION need only satisfy the requirements for Class 1 ("unacknowledged") CFDP. This keeps the implementation small, but without loss of capability. This innovation minimizes processing resources by using zero-copy objects for file data transmission. It runs without modification in VxWorks, Linux, Solaris, and OS/X. As such, this innovation can be used without modification in both flight and ground systems. Integration with DTN enables the CFDP implementation itself to be very simple; therefore, very small. Use of ION infrastructure minimizes consumption of storage and processing resources while maximizing safety.
