questions related to the mobile-computing environment. We list examples of the types of
questions that are worth exploring in the model. The objective of including such questions is
to expose yet another aspect of the ongoing research related to wireless networking. On the
one hand, such models must abstract away all but the most important details in order to remain
usable. On the other hand, over simplification by such a modeling effort means that the results
ascertained from the model have little to no practical implications. This model seems to
achieve a good balance.
We end the chapter with a brief section devoted to conclusions.
