Abstract
The growth over the last decade in the use of wireless networking devices has been explosive. Soon many
devices will have multiple network interfaces, each with very different characteristics. We believe that a
framework that encapsulates the key challenges of heterogeneous networking is required. Like a map clearly
helps one to plan a journey, a framework is needed to help us move forward in this unexplored area. The
approach taken here is similar to the OSImodel in which tightly defined layers are used to specify functionality,
allowing a modular approach to the extension of systems and the interchange of their components, whilst
providing a model that is more oriented to heterogeneity and mobility.
