Abstract(in English) Due to the recent advancement of network and computer technologies, it has become possible to utilize a handy computer anywhere any time. To support such mobile computers, there have been a lot of studies on a mobility transparent communication protocol, where two mechanisms are usually introduced: the location management mechanism of the mobile hosts and the packet forwarding mechanism to these mobile hosts. In this paper, we propose several strategies to carry out these two mechanisms in a hierarchical manner. In these strategies, the network is composed of several fragments of subnetworks, called domains, and the mechanisms are separated into the inter-domain level and the intra-domain level. By applying an appropriate method in each level, we can reduce the total traffic. Using a grid topology, we compare these strategies with conventional strategies from a traffic point of view, and show the effectiveness of our strategies.
