    Topic:
      Predictive Reservation for Allocating Bandwidth for Wireless ATM 
networks.

    Major Goals:
     [1] What are wireless ATM networks?
     [2] How is the wireless ATM Architecture?
     [3] How the QoS of the Wireless ATM networks can be improved using 
predicitve reservation?

    Scope:
            In future wireless networks such as the Wireless ATM networks, it 
is important to guarantee quality-of-service
    (QOS) for mobile terminals. However, guaranteeing QOS while ensuring high 
bandwidth utilization is difficult because of the
     unpredictable nature of the terminals mobility pattern. In this paper, I 
have tried  to propose a new scheme to improve the
     QOS of Wireless ATM networks by using predictive reservation of bandwidth 
from mobility patterns dynamically. I will propose
     a scheme that use this predictive framework and evaluate their 
performance. Simulation results show that under heavy load
     conditions, our proposed dropping probabilities by a signicant amount 
while resulting in only a small increase in the
     blocking probabilities and a minimal sacrifice in bandwidth utilization.
