“…As cell sizes become smaller and the number of mobile users increases, the signaling cost incurred in both location update and paging increases. Efficient location management per user to minimize update and paging costs, accordingly, becomes vital and has been studied extensively [1][2][3][4][6][7][8][9][10][12][13][14][15][16].…”

A user's profile, for the purpose of location management in a personal communication service (PCS) network, is formalized as a subgraph of the network graph. This subgraph, the so-called individual profile graph (IPG), is determined after a period of observation with the intent of predicting and codifying the user's diurnal routine. The IPG is easily-motivated, robust, straightforwardly computed from observed data, and, under fairly intuitive assumptions, provably predictive of the user's diurnal routine. An IPG-based paging and update strategy is analyzed. It is shown to significantly improve a straight location area (LA) based strategy that ignores user profiles.
