  3. Introduction • MIPv6 - Mobile IPv6 • A version of mobile IP, it allows an IPv6 node to be mobile and still maintain existing connections; • HMIPv6 - Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 • Proposed enhancement of MIPv6, it is designed to reduce the amount of signaling required and to improve handoff speed for mobile connections; • MAP – Mobility Anchor Point • Serving as a local entity to aid in mobile handoffs, it can be located anywhere within a hierarchy of routers;

  4. Introduction • HA - home agent • A router on a mobile node’s home network that maintains information about the device’s current location, as identified in its CoA; • CoA - care of address • A temporary IP address for a mobile node that enables message delivery when the device is connecting from somewhere other than its home network; • Location handoff • Mobile node moves across a subnet boundary; • Service handoff • Mobile node moves across a DMAP domain boundary;

  5. Related Work • MIP-RR • MIP Regional Registration, uses a Gateway Foreign Agent to provide a regional CoA, which acts as a proxy for regional movement management; • The design is for mobility management only without considering service management-induced network cost.

  6. Related Work • Hierarchical MIPv6 • In HMIPv6, a regional CoA (RCoA) is allocated to a mobile node, in addition to a CoA, whenever the mobile node enters a new MAP domain; • MAPs in HMIPv6 are statically configured and shared by all mobile nodes in the system; • There is no mechanism provided to determine the size of a MAP domain in HMIPv6 for all mobile nodes that would minimize the network cost.

  7. Related Work • IDMP • It introduces the concept of domain mobility with a domain and a domain agent to keep track of CoA of a mobile node as the mobile node roams within a domain; • It can be combined with fast handoff mechanisms utilizing multicasting to reduce handoff latency and paging mechanisms to reduce the network signaling cost for intra-domain movements.

  8. DMAP • The essence of DMAP is the notion of integrated mobility and service management, which is achieved by determining an optimal service area size; • The objective is to minimize the total network signaling and communication overhead in servicing the mobile node’s mobility and service management operations;

  9. DMAP • Inter-regional move • The mobile node makes the AR of the subnet as the DMAP when it crosses a service area, and it also determines the size of the new service area; • MN acquires a RCoA as well as a CoA from the current subnet and registers the address pair to the current DMAP in a binding request message;

  10. DMAP • Inter-regional move • The MN also informs the HA and CNs of the new RCoA address change in another binding message so that the HA and CNs would know the MN by its new RCoA address; • DMAP intercepts the packet destined for RCoA, inspects the address pair stored in the internal table, finds out MN’s CoA and forwards the packet to the MN through tunneling;

  11. DMAP • Intra-regional move • When the MN subsequently crosses a subnet but is still located within the service area, it would inform the MAP of the CoA address change without informing the HA and CNs to reduce the network signaling cost;

  12. DMAP

  13. DMAP • A MN’s service area can be modeled as consisting of K IP subnets; • The MN appoints a new DMAP only when it crosses a service area whose size is determined based on the mobility and service characteristics of the MN in the new service area; • The service area size of the DMAP is not necessarily uniform;

  14. DMAP • A large service area size means that the DMAP will not change often, while a small service area size means that the DMAP will be changed often so it will stay close to the MN; • There is a trade-off between two cost factors and an optimal service area exists;

  15. DMAP • The service and mobility characteristics of a MN are summarized by two parameters: • The resident time that the MN stays in a subnet, represented by using the MN’s mobility rate σ; • The service traffic between the MN and server applications, represented by using the data packet rate λ; • The ratio of λ/ σ is called the service to mobility ratio (SMR) of the MN;

  16. Model • We devise a computational procedure to determine the optimal service area size • The intent to find the optimal service area based on the MN’s mobility and service behaviors • The computational procedure requires • Every AR must be capable of acting as a MAP • Each MN must be powerful enough to collect data dynamically and perform simple statistical analysis

  17. Model • We aim to minimize the communication cost • The signaling overhead for mobility management for informing the DMAP of the CoA changes • Informing the HA and CNs of the RCoA changes • The communication overhead for service management for delivering data packets between the MN and CNs • Our SPN model is shown later

  20. Stochastic Petri Net K (Guard:Mark(Xs)<K-1) tmp Pi=1 A Moves K Xs MN2DMAP Pj=1 Move NewDMAP B (Guard:Mark(Xs)=K) (Guard:Mark(Xs)=K-1) A token represents a subnet crossing event by the MN

  21. Stochastic Petri Net-Places K A temporary place holds tokens from transition A Mark(Xs) holds the number of subnets crossed in a service area Mark(Moves)=1 means that the MN just moves aross a subnet (Guard:Mark(Xs)<K-1) tmp Pi=1 A Moves K Xs MN2DMAP Pj=1 Move NewDMAP B (Guard:Mark(Xs)=K) (Guard:Mark(Xs)=K-1)

  22. Stochastic Petri Net-Transitions A guard for transition A that is enabled if a move will not cross a service area A timed transition for the MN to inform the HA and CNs of the RCoA change K A timed transition for the MN to inform the DMAP of the CoA change A timed transition for the MN to move across subnet areas (Guard:Mark(Xs)<K-1) tmp Pi=1 A Moves K Xs MN2DMAP Pj=1 Move NewDMAP B (Guard:Mark(Xs)=K) (Guard:Mark(Xs)=K-1) A guard for transition B that is enabled if a move will cross a service area

  23. Transition Rate • MN2DMAP The number of hops between the current subnet and the DMAP seperated by Mark(Xs)+1 subnets Wireless one-hop communication delay per packet

  24. Transition Rate • NewDMAP • The communication cost includes that for the MN to inform the HA and CNs of the new RCoA change The average distance in hops between the MN and the HA via wired network The average distance in hops between the MN and N CNs via wired network

  25. Cost of Service Management • Pi: The steady-state probability that the system is found to contain i tokens in place Xs such that Mark(Xs)=i • Ci,service: The communication overhead for the network to service a data packet when MN is in the i-th subnet in the service area A delay in the wireless link form the AR to the MN A delay between the DMAP and a CN in the fixed network A delay from DMAP to the AR of the MN’s current subnet in the fixed network

  26. Cost of Location Management • Ci,location: The network signaling overhead to service a location handoff operation given the MN is in the i-th subnet in the service area • If i < K • Only a minimum signaling cost will incurred for the MN to inform the DMAP of the CoA address change • If i = K • The location handoff also triggers a service handoff • A service handoff will incur higher communication signaling cost to inform the HA and N CNs of the RCoA address change

  27. Cost of Location Management A location handoff and a service handoff A minimum signaling cost for the MN to inform the DMAP of the CoA address change

  28. Cost of DMAP • Summarizing above, the total communication cost per time unit for the Mobile IP network operating under our DMAP scheme to service operations associated with mobility and service management of the MN is calculated as: Service management cost Mobility management cost

  29. Numerical Results • We calculate CDMAP as a function of K and determine the optimal K • K represents the optimal “service area” size • The size will minimize the network cost given • A set of parameter values charactering the MN’s mobility and service behaviors • We present results to show that • There exists an optimal service area under DMAP • Demonstrate the benefit of DMAP over basic MIPv6 and HMIPv6

  30. Numerical Results • MIPv6 A delay in the wireless link from the AR to the MN A communication delay from the CN to the AR of the current subnet A delay in the wireless link from the MN to the AR of the subnet that it just enters into A delay from that AR to the HA A delay from that AR to the CNs

  31. Numerical Results • HMIPv6 • The placement of MAPs is predetermined • Each MAP covers a fixed number of subnets • KH= 4 • A MN crosses a subnet within a MAP • It only informs the MAP of its CoA • A MN crosses a MAP • Changes the MAP • Obtain a new RCoA • Informs the HA and CNs of the new RCoA

  36. Applicability and Conclusion • We proposed a novel DMAP scheme for integrated mobility and service management • To apply the analysis results in the paper, one can execute the computational procedure at static time to determine optimal Kopt over a possible range of parameter values • In the future, we plan to consider the implementation issue by building a testbed system to validate the analytical results as well as testing the sensitivity of the results with respect to other time distributions other than the exponential distribution used in the analysis
