Abstract

The fast development of mobile computing has produced a wide variety of technologies that affect systems in the mobile computing realm. Even though mobile computing focuses the importance of interrelated systems, the qualifying of interoperability remains an important constraint. In this chapter, several techniques are explained to manage various heterogeneity characteristics along with the key concepts related to these systems. A general approach is described to manage the heterogeneity. It has been seen that to have a better performance in overlapping networks, it is necessary to switch between the networks due to mobility and congestion. This problem is overcome by overlay networks that identify the existing network and then select the best network and allow transmission from one node to another node in the same network or create a novel network. In this way, this architecture provides a way to transmit packets to the mobile host using the available network.
