Universal Seamless Handoff Architecture in Wireless Overlay Networks

In view of the proliferation of mobile applications, a universal seamless handoff solution across wireless domains is becoming increasingly important. While wired connections usually provide high speed, reliable access to the Internet, wireless networking technologies enable users to access customized Internet services even when they are moving. A seamless handoff solution with both
