SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) is standardized by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as a signaling and control functionality for multimedia services (video and audio). However, SIP is a text-based protocol with messages usually exceeding several hundred bytes in size, thus causing high call set-up latency over low bit-rate links. As a consequence, SIP suffers from undesirable delay which is...
One of the most important issues in wireless and mobile communication technologies is the mobility management when a mobile node moves between different access networks. Many alternative ways to realize mobility management have been proposed on different layers. In this paper we discuss the vertical handoff behavior when a mobile node moves from IEEE 802.11 network to IEEE 802.16 network and vice...
The IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) is standardized by the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) and 3GPP2 as a new core network domain to support Internet Protocol (IP) based multimedia services over 3G networks. Session initiation protocol (SIP) which is an application layer signaling protocol is also standardized by 3GPP and 3GPP2 for session establishment, management, and transformation. In...
Pervasive computing applications must be engineered to provide unprecedented levels of flexibility in order to reconfigure and adapt in response to changes in computing resources and user requirements. To meet these challenges, appropriate software engineering abstractions and infrastructure are required as a platform on which to build adaptive applications. In this paper, we demonstrate the use of...
Application-level protocol abstraction is required to support seamless mobility in next generation heterogeneous wireless networks. Session initiation protocol (SIP) provides such an abstraction in providing mobility support in such networks. However, the handoff procedure with SIP suffers from undesirable delay and hence packet loss for some cases, which is detrimental to applications such as voice...
