New technologies have been expanding rapidly in recent years. These new technologies require new communication systems, such as delay tolerant networks (DTN). However, establishing communications is not enough. Networks must allow data to be exchanged and these data must be understood by the entities that receive them. Although a lot of DTN routing protocol has been proposed for DTN networks, but with the emergence of new technological applications such as drones, the Internet of Things, etc., the DTN routing protocol is still in use. It is desirable to develop a feasible, reliable and robust protocol for this new range of applications. In this work, we will present a DTN protocol for the Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
