| Summary: | Starting in May 2008, N4C is a 36 month research project in the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7, www.cordis.lu/fp7). In cooperation between users in northern Sweden and the Kočevje region in Slovenian mountain and partners, the project will design and experiment with an architecture, infrastructure and applications in field trials and build two test beds. This document examines the state of the art of Delay- and Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) as it existed during the early part of the N4C project both from a technical point of view and in terms of the demonstrations and test beds that had been created using this technology. It also reviews other projects related to rural Internet initiatives both from a technical and business pint of view. It provides a summary of the situation, including a review of the major open questions in DTN research, some of which the N4C project is seeking to address. It will be complemented by an annotated online bibliography hosted on the N4C project wiki that provides a wealth of additional material on the more detailed aspects of the subject.
