In the future mobile network, satellites will operate alongside cellular networks in order to provide seamless connectivity irrespective of the location of the user. Such a service scenario requires that the next generation of mobility management (MM) procedures are able to ensure terminal and user mobility on a global scale. This paper considers how the principles of Mobile-IP can be used to d...

Growing urbanization and the increasing size of metropolitan regions is a challenge as well as an opportunity for the economic development and social balance of societies particular in developing countries like Vietnam. The very dynamical evolution of the cities implies special requirements for mobility concepts. These need to be adapted to possible future developments both with respect to thei...

Multimedia content can be digitally distributed in a B2B and in a B2C context. While B2C distribution has been successfully governed by means of digital licenses, B2B transfers have received less attention. These digital licenses have been expressed in standard RELs (Rights Expression Language) and they can be seen as the electronic replacement of distribution contracts and end user licenses. H...

intellectual property law is premised traditionally on the protection of inventions (patent), literary and artistic property (copyright), and signs (trade mark); and sui generis rights, such as design law, stand outside this framework and are constantly questioned and re-shaped the fashion industry is an intellectual property (ip) intensive industry, continually generating and commercially expl...

Supply chain coordination has become a critical success factor and effectively improved the performance of organizations in various industries. The construction industry in general is characterized with high fragmentation, low productivity, cost and time overruns, and conflicts. The application of supply chain management in construction industry may provide a new solution for resolving these pr...

In this paper, we present our implementation of TeleMIP, a twolevel architecture for IP-based mobility management. TeleMIP essentially uses an Intra-Domain Mobility Management Protocol (IDMP) for managing mobility within a domain, and Mobile IP for supporting inter-domain (global) mobility. Unlike other proposed schemes for intra-domain mobility management, IDMP uses two care-of addresses for m...

One approach to solve the end to end (E2E) quality of services (QoS) problem of multimedia services delivery over multi-domain IP heterogeneous network infrastructures in a scaleable manner is the establishment of long term QoS enabled aggregated pipes. To allow dynamism, the actual service invocation of these pipes can be made as a separate action from the pipes subscription. This paper propos...
