Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus may include detecting a handover that is requested by a user equipment. The user equipment moves from a first area of a first mobile-edge-computing server to a second area of a second mobile-edge-computing server. The method may also include determining whether the user equipment has an ongoing application session with the first mobile-edge-computing server. The method may also include determining whether the ongoing application session should be moved from the first mobile-edge-computing server to the second mobile-edge-computing server, if the user equipment has been determined to have an ongoing application session. The method may also include moving the ongoing application session from the first mobile-edge-computing server to the second mobile-edge-computing server, if the application session has been determined to be moved.
