SLM, a framework for session layer mobility management
Björn Landfeldt, Tony Larsson, Yuri Ismailov, Aruna Prasad Seneviratne · 2003
This paper describes a novel framework for managing connections to mobile hosts in the Internet. The framework, SLM, integrates the notions of quality of service management and mobility management and forms a base for overall session management. We compare SLM with the currently most widely adopted mobility management framework, Mobile IP, and show how some of Mobile IP's deficiencies are overcome. The paper further presents some initial experimental results and future research.
