The draft discusses the solution approach and its architectural benefits of
translating mobile session information into routing information.

Mobile session information is a function of M,N (GTP start point and end
point), whereas routing information is a function of N (destination).

So, for any-to-any communication, it's obvious. O(N^2) vs O(N).

Edge/distributed computing can be seen as a subset of any-to-any
communication. Routing paradigm naturally enables ubiquitous computing.

But Session based architecture requires session signaling for Edge Server
Selection and UPF Selection. 3GPP TS 23.548 and TS23.558 seem complex.
For FMC/WWC, 3GPP architecture requires that non-3GPP traffic are also to
be terminated by UPF, which is not optimal from the viewpoint of cost and
scaling.

We will try to revise the writing to be more clear and concrete. Thank you
for pointing this out.

We fully respect the current way of mobility. There are certainly routing
based shortcomings.  We have to experiment and verify the feasible
frequency of HO and how far it can be seamless. But mobile applications are
getting various, e.g. FWA, IoT..  And it would be good to apply this
architecture in a complementary and selective way.

Miya
