Mobile Agents in the Mobile Telephone Network Management

The paper discusses the application of mobile agents in the management of mobile telephone (cellular) networks. We propose the use of mobile agents for collecting subscriber information, such as location area identifier and cell identifier. By using a subscriber profile containing these data the signaling messages caused by location update could be reduced. We also propose a method to improve t...

Deployment of Mobile Agents in the Mobile Telephone Network Management

Mobile agents are autonomous, asynchronous and, optionally, intelligent software entities which can migrate to and reside in a number of network nodes. In our proposal mobile agents are used for collecting subscriber information on the terminal side in mobile communication networks. Mobile agents are sent out by the network part for collecting information, such as location area identifier and c...

Using mobile agents for network performance management

Mobile agent frameworks have attracted a lot of attention in recent years, seen as counterparts of static distributed object frameworks but allowing also for object or agent mobility. A lot of research is currently being carried out trying to assess their applicability to network management and control environments. In this paper, we present our experiences of using a mobile agent framework to ...

Improving TCP Performance in Multi Hop Mobile Adhoc Network

TCP is a window-based flow and congestion control protocol that uses a sliding window mechanism to manage its data transmission. The purpose of this scheme is to guarantee that the sender adjusts its transmission rate to meet both sender and receiver needs. Thus, the TCP sender contains a variable denoted window determining the amount of packets it can send into the network before receiving an ...
