The recent NSF Workshop on Infrastructure for Mobile and Wireless Systems, held on Oct. 15, 2001 in Phoenix had a goal of defining and establishing a common infrastructure for the discipline of mobile wireless networking. This consensus-based paper is the outcome of that workshop. The paper provides a foundation for implementation, standardization, and further research and discussion on the issues of what should constitute such an infrastructure. Workshop participants came from many different wireless communities, including those of communications, operating systems, core networking, mobility, databases, and middleware. The workshop presented various research directions in the field and included substantial discussion on the role of an infrastructure for wireless mobile networking and the desirable components of such an infrastructure. The outcome of the workshop was not a crisp and clear-cut definition of the infrastructure and its components, rather a step towards a better understanding of the infrastructure requirements of the mobile wireless environment.
