With recent technological advances in wireless communication networks, the need for an efficient architecture for IP mobility is becoming more apparent. Enabling IP mobility architecture is a significant issue for making use of various portable devices appearing on the Internet. Mobile IP, the current standard for IP based mobility management, is capable of providing wireless Internet access to mobile users. The most important feature of Mobile IP is its ability to support the changing point of attachment of the mobile user by an algorithm known as handover. A handover algorithm is needed to maintain connectivity to the Internet whenever the mobile users move from one subnet to another, while simultaneously providing minimum disruption to ongoing sessions. This thesis gives an overview of Mobile IP, its open issues, some of the subsequent enhancements and extensions related to the handover management problem of the mobile user. Description and evaluation of various handover algorithms for Mobile IP which have been proposed to reduce packet loss and delay during handover constitute the core of the thesis. In this thesis, a comparative performance evaluation of the proposed protocols and the combination of them is also presented through simulations.

A novel architecture proposal for multi-access management in IP-based future wireless networks
Altundaş, Süleyman; Buyurman, Baykal; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2003)
As the wireless networking technologies advance rapidly, providing mobile users with roaming freely in heterogeneous wireless access domains, the need for multi access arises. This thesis proposes a novel Mobile Multi-Access Management Architecture (MMA-IP) for IP-based future wireless networks. The thesis includes a proposal for a PhD study towards establishing such an architecture. MMA-IP enables mobile users to utilize multiple access domains synchronously and to switch seamlessly between different acces...
A novel user activity prediction model for context aware computing systems
Peker, Serhat; Koçyiğit, Altan; Department of Information Systems (2011)
In the last decade, with the extensive use of mobile electronic and wireless communication devices, there is a growing need for context aware applications and many pervasive computing applications have become integral parts of our daily lives. Context aware recommender systems are one of the popular ones in this area. Such systems surround the users and integrate with the environment; hence, they are aware of the users' context and use that information to deliver personalized recommendations about everyday ...
An Intelligent fuzzy clustering approach for energy-efficient data aggregation in wireless sensor networks
Sert, Seyyit Alper; Yazıcı, Adnan; Department of Computer Engineering (2018)
Technological developments have made the generation and usage of wireless sensor nodes possible. Although an individual node is capable of gathering data alone, these nodes generally cooperate to extract high-level semantic information from the sensed region. Networks consisting such nodes are referred to as Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). There is generally a balance between energy-efficiency and accuracy, which are two desirable but incompatible features of these networks, because of the resource-restric...
Location update generation and performance analysis in cellular mobile computing systems
Yoncacı, İlker; Demirös, Onur; Erten, Murat; Department of Information Systems (2002)
The Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) allows user universal and worlwide access to information and the ability to communicate with each other independently of their location and mobility. Tracking mobile users is one of the basic functions of the network system and one of the important issues in the design of a mobile computing system is how to manage the real-time locations of mobile clients. Most of the mobile computing applications are expected to support location- dependent continuous querie...
Performability Analysis Methods for Clustered WSNs as Enabling Technology for IoT
Ever, Enver (2019-01-01)
The Internet of Things (IoT) where sensors are used to couple the physical infrastructure with information and communication technologies is the main concept enabling applications such as smart homes, smart cities and intelligent transportation. The distributed sensor networks are used for interconnecting devices to transmit measured information, and control instructions. Therefore, energy efficiency and performability of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are critical for IoT applications. It is possible to c...
