Embodiment methods and systems enable completing online transactions when there is insufficiently reliable connectivity between the initiating computing device and the remote server to enable completing the transaction directly. Transactions in such situations are accomplished using a RESTful Delay Tolerant Network. A set of messages constituting the web transaction are bundled, together with instructions and other metadata, in a manner that enables intermediate nodes in the network to complete the transactions on behalf of the source computing device. The source computing device then delegates the web transaction to an intermediate node. If the intermediate node can complete the transaction with the destination device, it does so on behalf of the source computing device. If not, the intermediate node delegates the web transaction to another intermediate node, which may be repeated until an intermediate node is able to complete the transaction with the destination. |
