The area of networking games has had a growing impact on wireless networks. This reflects the recognition in the important scaling advantages that the service providers can benefit from by increasing the autonomy of mobiles in decision making. This may however result in inefficiencies that are inherent to equilibria in non-cooperative games. Due to the concern for efficiency, centralized protocols...
In this paper, mobile multicast mechanism based on IEEE 802.21 MIH (Media Independent Handover) for efficient network resource usage is proposed. Proposed mechanism supports the efficiency of network resource usage and fast multicast handover. The proposed architecture adopts multicast manager concept to MIH framework in order to efficiently perform mobile multicast handover, and adds the new MIH...
The limited ability of conceptual layers to exploit the nature of mobile communications has led to cross-layer solutions that allow optimal operations for heterogeneous wireless network services. This study proposes a cross-layer-based quality-of-service (QoS) architecture that includes the QoS engine and the cross-layer algorithm. The QoS engine is composed of the QoS daemon, QoS agent and control...
Recent evolution of intelligent vehicles features the large scale emergence and introduction of multimode mobile terminals, with the capability to simultaneously or sequentially attach to conceptually different access networks. To cope with this, they require some abstracted framework for their management and control, especially in the case of intelligent selection between the various heterogeneous...
A growing number of users communicate on the move with each other utilising wireless network technologies. The heterogeneity level of networks is increasing with various wired and wireless parts as well as access technologies. Mobile ad hoc communications can fill the connectivity gaps in such networks. However, the increasing amount of multimedia content shared over the wireless medium makes quality...
In this paper we present a QoS enabled architecture which incorporates additional management functionality so as to ensure the provision of sophisticated broadband applications at the appropriate QoS levels. The architecture exploits the potentials of heterogeneous network environments and the power of emerging protocols like IEEE 802.21 and 802.11r.
