Vehicle Internet access benefits from using heterogeneous multi-provider networks. However, such access suffers significantly from insufficient handover processes. Due to high vehicle speeds, handover happens frequently and is substantially impaired by high handover delays. To solve correlated issues, we propose MoVeNet, a client-controlled, distributed mobility management approach with three substantial ...

Today, mobile nodes use multiple Internet access networks inefficiently. State-of-the-art network selection strategies distribute data traffic to available networks, but ignore an important second dimension: time. Time selection offers the opportunity to plan usage of future-available networks for delay-tolerant data traffic. We hypothesize, that concurrent selection of network and time ...

Currently discussed handover protocols do not provide the means to allow holistic flow handover scheduling. However, flow scheduling leads to a performance boost resulting from efficient parallel network use and a match of network characteristics to application requirements. Mobile IPv6 with flow binding extension and route optimization fulfills most requirements. ...
