Abstract
A node device has a delivery predictability management part, a DTN communication part, and a user interface part. The delivery predictability management part stores, for each destination node, delivery predictabilities including a delivery predictability for the destination node calculated by a local node and a delivery predictability for the destination node calculated by a neighboring node. The DTN communication part refers to the delivery predictabilities for each destination node and selects a next hop node in transferring transfer data from the local node to the destination node. The user interface part allows selection of a destination node for DTN communication with the local node as a source node on a basis of the delivery predictabilities for each destination node.
