Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) represents a category of network architectures tailored to challenging network environments. Its primary focus is on addressing network discontinuity, alongside tackling issues like resource constraints and network heterogeneity. Over the past few decades, DTNs have garnered attention as an alternative or complement to existing routing protocols, with a special emphasis on supporting emerging network-based applications that demand enhanced delay tolerance, fault resilience, and flexibility. Among these applications, the Internet of Things (IoT) stands out as a significant domain. This paper provides a brief overview of the commonalities and areas where DTN solutions converge within IoT applications. To enhance delay-tolerant routing in IoT, this work introduces a DTN-based routing protocol known as the Optimised Spray and Wait Protocol (OSnW). This protocol is proposed as a viable alternative for IoT applications with limited buffer resources. Comparative evaluations against three widely used protocols, Epidemic, Spray and Wait, and ProPHET, reveal that the proposed OSnW protocol excels in several key evaluation metrics. The overarching goal of this research is to offer a solution that empowers delay-tolerant routing within the realm of IoT.
