Inter-subnet localized mobility support for host identity protocol
Host identity protocol (HIP) has security support to enable secured mobility and multihoming, both of which are essential for future Internet applications. Compared to end host mobility and multihoming with HIP, existing HIP-based micro-mobility solutions have optimized handover performance by reducing location update delay. However, all these mobility solutions are client-based mobility solutions. We observe that another fundamental issue with end host mobility and multihoming extension for HIP and HIP-based micro-mobility solutions is that handover delay can be excessive unless the support for network-based micro-mobility is strengthened. In this study, we co-locate a new functional entity, subnet-rendezvous server, at the access routers to provide mobility to HIP host. We present the architectural elements of the framework and show through discussion and simulation results that our proposed scheme has achieved negligible handover latency and little packet loss
FAIR: Towards Impartial Resource Allocation for Intelligent Vehicles with Automotive Edge Computing
The emerging vehicular connected applications, such as cooperative automated
driving and intersection collision warning, show great potentials to improve
the driving safety, where vehicles can share the data collected by a variety of
on-board sensors with surrounding vehicles and roadside infrastructures.
Transmitting and processing this huge amount of sensory data introduces new
challenges for automotive edge computing with traditional wireless
communication networks. In this work, we address the problem of traditional
asymmetrical network resource allocation for uplink and downlink connections
that can significantly degrade the performance of vehicular connected
applications. An end-to-end automotive edge networking system, FAIR, is
proposed to provide fast, scalable, and impartial connected services for
intelligent vehicles with edge computing, which can be applied to any traffic
scenes and road topology. The core of FAIR is our proposed symmetrical network
resource allocation algorithm deployed at edge servers and service adaptation
algorithm equipped on intelligent vehicles. Extensive simulations are conducted
to validate our proposed FAIR by leveraging real-world traffic dataset.
Simulation results demonstrate that FAIR outperforms existing solutions in a
variety of traffic scenes and road topology.Comment: This is a personal copy of the authors. Not for redistribution. The

Distributed mobility management with mobile Host Identity Protocol proxy
The architectural evolution from hierarchical to flatter networks creates new challenges such as single points of failure and bottlenecks, non-optimal routing paths, scalability problems, and long handover delays. The cellular networks have been hierarchical so that they are largely built on centralized functions based on which their handover mechanisms have been built. They need to be redesigned and/or carefully optimized. The mobility extension to Host Identity Protocol (HIP) proxy, mobile HIP Proxy (MHP), provides a seamless and secure handover for the Mobile Host in the hierarchical network. However, the MHP cannot ensure the same handover performance in flatter network because the MHP has also utilized the features offered by the hierarchical architecture. This paper extends the MHP to distributed mobile HIP proxy (DMHP). The performance evaluation of the DMHP in comparison to MHP and other similar mobility solutions demonstrates that DMHP does indeed perform well in the flatter networks. Moreover, the DMHP supports both efficient multi-homing and handover management for many mobile hosts at the same time to the same new point of attachment
