In this last technical chapter, we finally present concrete application scenarios for opportunistic networks. We have waited with this discussion until the end so that the properties, advantages, and limitations of opportunistic networks become clear in detail first. Even if many different application cases have been proposed in the literature, not all of them are equally well suited to be implemented with opportunistic networks. Here, we focus only on the most promising examples where also concrete implementations already exist.
