DFF was developed to alleviate this situation: it reacts rapidly to local data delivery failures and attempts to successfully deliver data while giving a routing protocol time to recover from such a failure. An extension of DFF, denoted DFF++, is proposed in this paper, in order to optimise the performance of DFF by way of introducing a more efficient search ordering. This paper also studies the applicability, of DFF to three major routing protocols for the "Internet of Things", including the Lightweight On-demand Ad hoc Distance-vector Routing Protocol-Next Generation (LOADng), the Optimized Link State Routing protocol version 2 (OLSRv2), and the IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL), and presents the performance of these protocols, with and without DFF, in lossy and unreliable networks. %G English %2 https://polytechnique.hal.science/hal-02263368/document %2 https://polytechnique.hal.science/hal-02263368/file/2015-IEEE-Internet-of-Things-Journal-Depth-First-Forwarding-for-Unreliable-Networks-Extensions-and-Applications.pdf %L hal-02263368 %U https://polytechnique.hal.science/hal-02263368 %~ X %~ X-DEP %~ UNIV-PARIS-SACLAY %~ X-SACLAY
