Event-Based Addressing for Information Distribution in Dynamic Networks

— A salient feature of upcoming communication networks is unprecedented dynamicity, which can only be handled in a large scale by introducing self-configuration and self-maintenance mechanisms. The main contribution of this paper is the definition of a protocol toolbox for efficiently supporting communication for self-configuration and selfmaintenance in dynamic environments. We leverage our experience from developing trigger management mechanisms for mobility control and extend the Generic Ambient Network Signaling protocol by defining a new Routing Method, the eventbased Routing Method.
