Abstract

Web session handoff is one of the ways of improving the web browsing experience; other ways include the use of bookmarks and web history synchronization between two PCs. This paper discusses the implementation and evaluation of a SIP-based web session migration service. A graphical tool, which is called Data Flow Diagram, is used to describe how the session migration service works. This work is compared with other existing web session migration approaches. In addition, the large scale deployment and limitations of the service are also discussed. Although all web sessions could not be migrated, the session mobility service worked in a Peer-to-Peer environment and offered SIP functionalities within web browsers. That is, a web browser can now act as an adaptive User Agent Client to surf the Internet and set-up multimedia sessions like a SIP client. In summary, it is a novel approach to web session migration in which SIP is used to transfer session data. It also borrowed SIP Mobility mechanisms to introduce new service, namely content sharing and session handoff, to the web browsing experience.
