Abstract

This paper addresses mobility management in the context of user-centri networking, alerting to the need to consider new paradigms to adapt mobility management solutions to future Internet architectures. The paper provides notions concerning distributed mobility management aspects, as well as what is mobility estimation and how it can be applied to current or to future mobility management solutions, based on an existing proof-of-concept.
