In this paper, one of the most important parameters in performance evaluation and protocol design of wireless networks, Link Excess Life (LEL), is investigated. An analytical mode...
— Seamless interoperability between two dissimilar networks require handoff from one network to the other. Such handoffs are known as vertical handoffs. Vertical handoff introduc...
As virtual worlds and games grow in both personal and cultural importance, present limitations in access to them is increasingly limiting their ability to achieve their potential....
Handoff latency results in packet losses and severe End-to-End TCP performance degradation as TCP, perceiving these losses as congestion, causes source throttling or retransmissio...
— End-to-end transport protocols such as TCP perform poorly in mobile environments, primarily due to their inability to cope with the dynamics incurred by node mobility. We re-co...
