Recently, the demand for wireless communications has grown tremendously. The need for "information anywhere anytime" has been a driving force for the increasing growth and advances in wireless communication and portable computing devices. The field of mobile computing and wireless computing is the merging place of these advances in information processing and communication with the aim of providing seamless and ubiquitous computing environment for mobile users. Location management, mobility management, and paging management are critical issues to provide "information anywhere anytime." Furthermore, requested information and services have to be delivered to mobile users with adequate quality of service (QoS). Ensuring expected QoS is still a big challenge, especially in light of user mobility and environments with heterogeneous wireless networks such as 3G/4G network, wireless LAN and ad hoc network.
The purpose of the special issue is to focus on the novel ways in which location, mobility, paging and QoS management schemes for cellular networks, mobile IP, wireless LANs and ad hoc networks. Specific areas of interest include (but are not limited to):
Location and mobility management for cellular networks, mobile IP, IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs, and mobile ad hoc networks. Location and mobility models for future wireless networks Paging management for cellular networks and mobile IP Algorithms, designs and protocols for quality of service in future wireless networks Integration of location management and quality of service for wireless networks Integration of 3G and IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs Resource management and control algorithms for multimedia applications Performance model and analysis of management algorithms and protocols
