Abstract
A controller function residing underneath a client application in a TCP/IP stack or session layer monitors state and status information associated with session-based application layer functions (e.g., content retrieval) and uses this information to migrate one or more sessions from a first client interface to a second client interface (e.g., 3G, 4G, LTE, 802.11x, WiMAX) and to a different application function serving entity (e.g., a different content server, cache server, service provider).
