Summary

Introduction

With the explosive growth of smart phones and Internet-of-Things (IoT) services, the effective support of seamless mobility for a variety of mobile devices and users is becoming one of the key challenging issues. In the mobile-oriented future internet (MOFI) environment, there will be a large number of mobile devices and users with a variety of heterogeneous mobile, wireless, sensor and vehicular networks. A lot of protocols have so far been proposed, which include host identity protocol (HIP) [2], identifier-locator network protocol (ILNP) [3] and quick UDP internet connection (QUIC) [4]. These works may not be enough to provide mobility management in the MOFI environment. We need to consider a variety of mobile networks in the MOFI environment, which include flying ad-hoc networks (FANET) [6] and connected vehicular networks [7]
