Overview
RAPID (Resource Allocation Protocol for Intentional DTN) is a routing algorithm
for disruption tolerant networks. We have implemented RAPID for the Delay
Tolerant Networking Research Group's DTN Reference Implementation. RAPID was developed
and tested with DTN 2.5. Since the XML schema for DTN 2.6 is essentially unchanged from
DTN 2.5, RAPID should also work with DTN 2.6 (and simple testing has been successful).
RAPID for DTN2 is:
- An external DTN2 router that makes use of DTN2's XML-based External
Router Interface.
-
- Open Source, released under the
Apache License, Version 2.0.
- Implemented in Java.
- Customizable.
- Supports
Apache log4j
and a simple console-based logger. Additional loggers can be written and configured to work with RAPID.
- Exports an interface to allow the router framework to use a user-supplied routing class rather than RAPID.
- Provides a plug-in interface for adding a user-defined, link-aware class.
