Module A Introduction
(Part A1)
Aspects of mobility:
user mobility: users communicate anytime, anywhere, with anyone
device portability: devices can be connected anytime, anywhere to the
network
Examples
stationary computer (desktop)
Cable-Internet laptop in a hotel
wireless LANs in historic buildings
smart phone
Disaster situations
replacement of a fixed infrastructure in case of earthquakes,
hurricanes, fire etc.
Military networks

Traveling salespeople
direct access to customer files stored in a central location
consistent databases for all agents
mobile office
Follow-on services
transmission of the actual workspace to the current location
Information services
push: e.g., current special offers in the shop nearby
pull: e.g., where is the closest Migros?
Support services
caches, intermediate results, state information etc. follow the
mobile device through the fixed network
