First ACM/IEEE International Workshop on Mobility in the Evolving Internet Architecture. Session: Architectural issues. San Francisco, California, Dec. 01 2006 This paper presents a novel architecture, MobiSplit, to manage mobility in future IP based networks. The proposed architecture separates mobility management in two levels, local and global, that are managed in completely independent ways. The paper describes the flexibility advantages that this architecture brings to operators, and how it is appropriate for the current trend to multiple and very different access providers and operators. Heterogeneity, support for seamless handovers and multihoming, and scalability issues are analyzed in the paper.
