Please REGISTE R in below as the seat are limited.\n\n- Venue: University of Pretoria (UP )\,Main campus (Hatfield)\, Auditorium(1-5)\, Carl Emily Fuchs\nInstitute for Microelectronics (CEFIM)\, Lynnwood Road\, Hatfield\, Pretoria\, South Africa\n- Date: Monday\, 17 September 2018\,\n- Time: 15:30- 16:30 (talk) \n- [RSVP: Refer to registration section of this page](https://events.vtoo ls.ieee.org/meeting_registration/register/176711)\n\nTopic:\nMobility Hand over Optimization Framework and IEEE 5G Initiative\n\nAs mobile networks c ontinue to grow and converge with the Internet\, new wireless devices and their use are outnumbering the use of fixed network. Mobility management n eeds to meet the requirements of existing and emerging network technologie s and applications. It may be supported in different layers of the network protocol stack. At the IP layer\, Mobile IP\, an IP-based mobility manage ment\, has the advantage of being applicable in any IP-based network\, but is faced with many deployment challenges. Numerous variants of Mobile IP have been proposed to address these challenges in different network enviro nments. Research in mobility management has become more active\, especiall y with the mobile networks continuing to evolve from hierarchical towards more flattened network and densification of wireless networks. This talk p resents the basics\, recent advances\, and future directions for mobility protocols at various layers (e.g.\, network\, transport and application). This talk then provides taxonomy of existing mobility protocols\, illustra tes an abstract mobility model that can be used to support various handoff scenarios. Various handoff optimization methodologies will be explained s upported by experimental and simulation results. This talk cites a few dep loyment scenarios to describe applicability of mobility protocols to vario us network environments. Finally\, the talk goes through the best practice s for mobility management and provides some research directions.\n\nThis e vent is a part of a series of IEEE events held in South Africa:\n\nIEEE SD N/NFV Workshop\, CSIR Pretoria\, 18 Sep 2018 https://events.vtools.ieee.or g/m/176742\n\nIEEE Distinguished Lectures Tour\n\n“Mobility Handover Opt imization Framework & IEEE 5G Initiative” on 17 Sep\n\n- University of J ohannesburg at 12PM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176694\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 Cape Town at 10AM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176702\n- Stellenbosch University at 2PM https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/176697\n\nThe events are being registere d for ECSA CPD (Continuous Professional Development) points.
