Re: Large-datagram hop-by-hop delivery mechanism

I am seeking a mechanism for reliable delivery of large blobs through a network of occasionally-connected hosts that can forward the blobs using available transport protocols. I can't find it, though. Most of the networking materials I can find deal more with immediate-transmission networks, where the destination host is reachable at the instant that the source host transmits. (This isn't a catenet.) If anyone knows of such a common or standardized system, please drop me a note.
sounds to me like email, where the sending host tries again and again over a defined period of time to delivery data. no? -- |-----< "CODE WARRIOR" >-----| codewarrior () daemon org * "ah! i see you have the internet twofsonet () graffiti com (Andrew Brown) that goes *ping*!" andrew () crossbar com * "information is power -- share the wealth."
