TL;DR: The authors argue that instead of idealizing certain notions of the traveller, or ways of practicing home, we need to keep an eye to the real-life tensions of homing and the multiplicity through which it expresses; we also need to understand homing as the performance of "belonging trouble".
Abstract: Abstract Research in migrant practices has recognised that home crystallises into multiple forms subject to constant re-enactment when viewed from the perspective of mobile populations such as nomads and refugees. In this article, we illustrate how artisan journeymen who went on the tramp around the turn of the 20th century performed home in multiple ways when on the road and at arrival in new locations. Using a historical example, we oppose the suggestion, which is common in contemporary migration and transnational studies that recent years have witnessed a paradigmatic new way of enacting belonging. Ultimately, the argument is that instead of idealising certain notions of the traveller, or ways of practicing home, we need to keep an eye to the real-life tensions of homing and the multiplicity through which it expresses; we need to understand homing as the performance of “belonging trouble.”

Abstract: This invention discloses a method for selecting homing user servers of IP multimedia subsystem automatically, which sets interfaces between a user locating function device and multiple homing user servers, and the user locating functional device enquires the state of the multiple homing user servers periodically and updates records, a call session control functional device enquires information of the servers to the user locating function device, which selects one available server and feeds back the information to the call session control function device based on recorded state of the multiple servers, when a HSS is faulty, SLR can identify it timely and switches the access path of CSCF to a disaster recovery backup corresponding to the faulty HSS automatically by SLF side so as to guarantee correctness of business.

TL;DR: In this article, a set of homing devices, each of which transmits a unique signal to a pre-setup mobile phone and a mobile phone that can receive, decode and monitor each of said unique signals from said set of signaling devices and can calculate and indicate proximity and direction of each device in each set of signalling devices respectively.
Abstract: Multiple homing devices system that transmits corresponding multiple unique signals to a pre-setup mobile phone. The system comprises a set of homing devices, each of which transmitting a unique signal to said pre-setup mobile phone and a mobile phone that can receive, decode and monitor each of said unique signals from said set of signaling devices and can calculate and indicate proximity and direction of each device in said set of signaling devices respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the effect of congestion on two-sided markets with single and multiple homing and concluded that in the case of single homing of agents, profits of the platform increase due to congestion if the agents have a low tolerance level, whereas in case of multi-homing, profits increase if they have a high tolerance level.
Abstract: Two sided markets involve two groups of agents who interact via "platforms". This paper analyses competition in a two sided market with congestion. The existing literature's on pricing mechanisms of two-sided markets has concluded that pricing mechanism depends on the following three factors: relative size of cross group externalities, fixed price or per transaction charge by platform, and single homing or multiple homing of agents. This paper extends the analysis by including the effect of congestion on pricing mechanisms in a two sided market. It concludes that in the case of single homing of agents, profits of the platform increase due to congestion if the agents have a low tolerance level, whereas in the case of multi homing, profits of the platform increase due to congestion if the agents have a high tolerance level.
