Abstract :
Discusses some typical multimedia applications and services that might be expected to use future wireless and combined wireless/wired networks. These include, among others, multimedia teleconferencing, the electronic newspaper, and nomadic computing. The author then describes control questions to be addressed in the mixed wireless/wired environment and control problems arising in the wireless network environment itself. Included are questions such as admission control, dynamic bandwidth control, flow control, handoff control, and resource allocation, among others
