Please REGISTER in below as the seat are limited.\n\nAs m obile networks continue to grow and converge with the Internet\, new wirel ess devices and their use are outnumbering the use of fixed network. Mobil ity management needs to meet the requirements of existing and emerging net work technologies and applications. It may be supported in different layer s of the network protocol stack. At the IP layer\, Mobile IP\, an IP-based mobility management\, has the advantage of being applicable in any IP-bas ed network\, but is faced with many deployment challenges. Numerous varian ts of Mobile IP have been proposed to address these challenges in differen t network environments. Research in mobility management has become more ac tive\, especially with the mobile networks continuing to evolve from hiera rchical towards more flattened network and densification of wireless netwo rks. This talk presents the basics\, recent advances\, and future directio ns for mobility protocols at various layers (e.g.\, network\, transport an d application). This talk then provides taxonomy of existing mobility prot ocols\, illustrates an abstract mobility model that can be used to support various handoff scenarios. Various handoff optimization methodologies wil l be explained supported by experimental and simulation results. This talk cites a few deployment scenarios to describe applicability of mobility pr otocols to various network environments. Finally\, the talk goes through t he best practices for mobility management and provides some research direc tions.\n\nThis event is a part of a series of IEEE events held in South Af rica:\n\nIEEE SDN/NFV Workshop\, CSIR Pretoria\, 18 Sep 2018 https://event s.vtools.ieee.org/m/176742\n\nIEEE Distinguished Lectures Tour\n\n“Mobil ity Handover Optimization Framework & IEEE 5G Initiative” on 17 Sep\n\n- University of Johannesburg at 12PM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/17669 4\n- University of Pretoria at 3PM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176711 \n\n“Security in SDN/NFV & 5G Networks” on 21 Sep\n\n- University of C ape Town at 10AM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176702\n- Stellenbosch U niversity at 2PM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176697\n\nThe events are being registered for ECSA CPD (Continuous Professional Development) point s.
