ROLE
Session Transfer
LAYERS  two general approaches
– packet logging and replay
– application specific bundling

ROLE
Session Split / Synchronizing
LAYERS  packet sent to bare JID: delivery depends on server
implementation…
 XEP-0280: Message Carbons experimental
– forwarding in- and outbond messages to other resources
Case A: Case B:
Juliet sends Message to romeo@example.net: Juliet sends Message to romeo@example.net/home:

Message is forked and sent to: Message is sent to:
romeo@example.net/home romeo@example.net/home
romeo@example.net/garden …and forwarded to:
romeo@example.net/garden

ROLE
Conclusion
LAYERS  Problems
– extension implementation & deferrals & experimentals
– OAuth
 ad-hoc
– session transfer over local link
– towards IoT
 state transfer using publish-subscribe
– as a more general approach
 more evaluation needed…
