Systems and/or methods for anchor node selection in networks using distributed mobility management (dmm)

A method for selecting an anchor node in a dense network using distributed mobility management (DMM), the method comprising:

• storing, at a device, a history comprising one or more routes of the device including anchor nodes on the one or more routes;
• detecting, at the device, one or more anchor nodes available for the device to connect to;
• determining, at the device, whether one or more of the detected anchor nodes are on the one or more routes in the history;
• and
• connecting, at the device, to one or more of the detected anchor nodes that correspond to the anchor nodes on the one or more routes in the history.

A method for selecting an anchor node in a dense network using distributed mobility management (DMM), the method comprising:

• detecting, at the device, one or more anchor nodes available for the device to connect to;
• determining, at the device, whether one or more of the detected anchor nodes includes or is close to an anchor node that includes content the device wishes to access to download the content;
• and
• connecting, at the device, to one or more of the detected anchor nodes that includes or is close to an anchor node that includes the content the device wishes to access to download the content.
