DTN: an architectural retrospective (2008, methodology): “Most fields are variable in length, and use a relatively compact notation called self-delimiting numerical values (SDNVs) [3].”
Routing in Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networks: A Taxonomy, Survey and Challenges (2013, methodology): “Given the lack of contemporaneous end-to-end connectivity that prevents the conventional routing algorithms designed for MANETs from working effectively in ICNs, the Bundle Protocol [3] borrowing from the concept of Email protocol is proposed by the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) Delay Tolerant”
