Modeling Mobility

Magdalena Balazinska and Paul Castro, Characterizing Mobility and Network Usage in a Corporate Wireless Local-Area Network, MobiSys 2003.
"We study user mobility patterns and introduce new metrics to model user mobility. We also analyze user and load distribution across access points. We compare our results with those from previous studies to extract and explain several network usage and mobility characteristics."
Michalis Faloutsos, CS-266: Seminar: Challenging the Modeling Assumptions of Mobile Networks.
"The goal of this seminar would be to: a. identify the impact of these assumptions [of mobile networks] on the simulation results; b. develop novel comprehensive and realistic models."
