- FCC's Net neutrality push: Is wireless access different?
- Stop coddling wireless companiesThey are no longer fledgling upstarts but the new normal. It is simply mind-boggling why they get away with a much looser regulatory framework than landlines. Why is it, for instance, that you do not have a choice of carrier for international calls the way you do...

- Micro Mobile MPLS Protocol in Next Generation Wireless Access Networks
- In current literature, several solutions have been proposed to support mobility in the future wireless-based networks. Although Mobile MPLS supports mobility, it is only suited to macro-mobility, and it fails to support micro-mobility efficiently. A number of micro-mobility protocols are designed for the management of intra-domain mobility. This paper proposes...
