There is increasing pressure on Telecoms and Internet Service Providers to supply their customers with access to their customized services anywhere, on any terminal via any access technology. The pressure is trickled down to software programmers to provide innovative and advanced applications to fit this new environment. This will require network protocol architects to provide an Internet framework that will give programmers more control and flexibility to create mobile aware applications. To fulfill such requirements, network protocol architects need to shift their mobility perspective from the mobile terminal to a finer grained model; finely grained in respect to allowing individual transport connections to seamless switch between network terminals, controlled dynamically and/or manually by applications or users. The key issue of this vision is how to support this model in TCP/IP networks. We argue that the TCP/IP socket pair connection identification model restricts this granularity and flexibility of mobility. We present Socketless TCP (SL-TCP), an architectural concept based on reconsidering the socket pair for connection identification. 2014-07-31T10:54:29Z 2014-07-31T10:54:29Z 2006 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5147 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
