The world is entering a post-PC era in which more real-time entertainment traffic is delivered
to mobile devices than to PCs. The unprecedented expansion of mobile Internet traffic has …

The number of wireless services and devices have remarkably increased, especially since
the introduction of smart phones. The population of mobile nodes (MNs) is now exceeding …

In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive performance study of distributed and dynamic
mobility management (DDMM). DDMM presents a new architectural paradigm for a …

The drawbacks of centralized mobility management (CMM) schemes, such as scalability,
non-optimal routes, and single points of failure, led to the development of a distributed …

The provision of seamless mobility is crucial for an efficient support of global roaming in
vehicular networks. The most compatible and interoperable handover management …

Recently, the IETF NETLMM working group is standardizing a network-based localized
mobility management (NETLMM) protocol called proxy mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6), yet the …

Abstract Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6) maintains the mobility management of mobile users
without involving them in the signaling of mobility process. The main limitations of PMIPv6 …

Currently existing IP mobility management protocols deploy a centralized anchor to manage
mobility of the mobile nodes in both control-and data-planes. As a result the data traffic and …
