The number of ways in mobile devices can be wirelessly connected to networks is increasing. Handheld devices already exist that support multiple wireless technologies and this is set to become the norm. However, this increased choice in connectivity presents users with the problem. The aim of this research is to develop an intelligent agent to the perform the network selection task on behalf of the user. This agent will then be embedded in a protocol stack dynamically selecting and maintaining the optimal match between an applications network requirements and the capabilities of the available network technologies and the users preference.

A new research poster has been posted in publications for a presentation that took place recently at Kingston University faculty of Computing Information Systems and Mathematics (CISM).
Also, plans are to update the links for research, and compile some notes on recent finding within the next couple of weeks, including some summary of work on simulations from ns2.
