    Abstract

    The FP7 project 4WARD is promoting a mobility concept integrated in the service and network infrastructure of a Future Internet. Starting from a business-motivated analysis of mobility aspects in future networks, we present a summary of the main project achievements and findings with respect to mobility: a data management for mobile objects in “networks of information”, a connectivity management for maintaining generic mobile communication, and innovative supporting mechanisms for integrated mobility, like topology discovery, group-size estimation and virtualization of wireless resources and networks. We conclude the presentation with an overview of the mobility related proof-of-concept validation and demonstrations that show how the novel concepts may work together.
