Ø A set of high-capacity, high-availability links between network traffic hubs – Terrestrial backbone links are between hubs like Houston and Chicago. – Interplanetary backbone links are between hubs like Earth and Mars. On the Interplanetary Backbone: • Communications capacity is expensive – Bits count • Round Trips hurt – Interactive protocols don’t work • Internet protocol suite doesn’t scale well with increasing latency • Negotiation is impractical • Reliable in-order delivery takes too long • Protocols need to be connectionless • Congestion control and flow control are difficult • Reliance on forward coding versus retransmission for error recovery • Custodial store-and-forward data transfer is fundamental – “Chatty Telephony” gives way to “Bundled Mail” as the model of operations Resulting Backbone Differences Terrestrial Interplanetary Backbone Backbone Transport TCP “Bundling” Network IP IP, NP, None?
