Mobility Support Issues
Majority of mobility management solutions make changes to the core network infrastructure
Mobile IP is an incomplete mobility management solution
Application layer has limited knowledge of activity in the physical and link layer protocols

Novel Solution to Handoff Management
Gives control to the mobile node
Handoff decision based on:physical, link, network & transport layers
Support for subnetwork outages
BenefitsHighly scalableHandoff decision made w/ end-to-end considerationsSupport multiple network technologies

Mobile Computing Application Example
Thin-Client Computing Approach !!!
Reliable and higher data rates more widely available: both outdoor & indoor
e.g. 3G, wireless LAN, UWB, etc.
Mobile “thick-clients” are prone todamage, theft, loss of datahas a high administration overhead
Benefits of mobile thin-clientsdevices can be disposablezero administration overhead

Global Mobility for Thin-Clients?
World dominated by IP
Unsupported network infrastructure for thin-client computing
Bandwidth: unlike ATM, QoS is not guaranteed in IP networks
poor user experience
