Title
Network Transparency In A Mountain Rescue Domain
Abstract
Purpose - This paper aims to discuss network transparency in a mountain rescue domain and aims to introduce the relatively new research concept of MANEMO (MANET + NEMO) and the mountain rescue IP network model developed at Lancaster University.Design/methodology/approach - An analysis of IP mobility techniques that have been designed for use in the Internet today is provided as background, as well as an overview of the whole MANEMO domain. Highlights the importance of the MANEMO concept by working with real scenarios and developing practical implementations (as opposed to simulation).Findings - During the research it was found that combining the localised multi-hop behaviour of MANET techniques and the global reachability of NEMO can be a mutually beneficial process. The benefits afforded by using MANET techniques can bring advantages to NEMO scenarios and vice-versa. Identifying this fact has given rise to the development of two distinct MANEMO scenarios, MANET-Centric and NEMO-Centric MANEMO. Finally, the Unified MANEMO Architecture (UMA) implementation, which attempts to support both of these scenarios in an efficient and feasible manner.Research limitations/implications - Regarding UMA, research continues into addressing the security implications of this approach and the benefits that multi-homing can provide.Originality/value - The paper illustrates how MANEMO can conceivably provide powerful solutions to many important scenarios.
