Managing location information of mobile terminals is an important issue in mobile computing systems. The IS-41and the GSM schemes are done inefficiently in the following situations: 1 ) mobile terminals frequently move to neighboring registration area, 2 ) frequently communicate with mobile terminals that reside at neighboring registration area. In this paper, we propose a new location management scheme that solves these problems. We compare the performance of the our scheme with that of the IS-41 scheme in respect of communication cost, database cost, and total cost. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme performs better than the IS-41 scheme.
