Popularity of the wireless communication systems can be seen almost everywhere in the form of cellular networks, WLANs and WPANs. The desired ubiquitous computing environment of the future has to exploit this multitude of connectivity alternatives resulting from diverse wireless communication systems and different access technologies to provide useful services with a guaranteed quality to the users. Many new applications require a ubiquitous computing environment capable of accessing information from different portable devices at any time and everywhere. This paper envisions an architecture for the state-of-the-art heterogeneous multi-hop networks, and identifies research issues that need to be addressed for a successful integration of heterogeneous technologies for the next generation of wireless and mobile networks.
