Abstract

Wireless links used for mobile communications have some problems such as narrow bandwidth and low reliability. To offer high speed communication on wireless links, we have proposed SHAKE (SHAring multiple paths procedure for cluster networK Environment). In SHAKE, mobile hosts which are connected with fast local link each other use multiple wireless links owned by each host simultaneously to communicate with hosts on the internet.

In this paper, we propose a fast WWW access method with SHAKE (Web SHAKE). The feature of Web SHAKE is that it does not require any special software on web servers on the internet to use SHAKE. The feature is realized by an use of HTTP Proxy Server which works on each mobile host. We present the result of performance evaluation of the Web SHAKE. We have shown that data transfer speed was improved by Web SHAKE in comparison with normal WWW access from three experiments.
