Software agent framework for dynamic handoff decision

This paper proposes a framework which supports dynamic handoff decision strategy (DHDS) and software agent (SA) for highly overlapping wireless networks. SA can dynamically download SA from local mobility strategy server to mobile node, and hence adapt the handoff decision to local environment and situations. In our experiment, a comprehensive comparison has been conducted to show that the proposed framework outstands from traditional unchangeable strategies in different situations and criteria based on our DHDS notion.
