PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods for establishing client-host active associations within a wireless network.SOLUTION: An active association corresponds to a host exclusively using a shared resource of a client. When the association is solid, requests from other hosts to establish an active association are denied. When the association is fragile, the requests from other hosts are granted. In the case of a semi-solid association, a request from another host causes the client to generate a query to a host currently owning the active association. If the host currently owning the association grants a release, a new active association is established between the host and the client. Otherwise, the request from the another host is denied. |
