The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A measurement study of vehicular internet access using in situ Wi-Fi networks (2006, result): “in some previous studies [14], possibly because our network conditions are less controlled and harsher.”
Jigsaw: solving the puzzle of enterprise 802.11 analysis (2006, background): “This approach works well for small, controlled active measurements, such as understanding linklevel characteristics of outdoor mesh networks [2], error characteristics of factory environments [26], or components of handoff latency [20].”
SyncScan: practical fast handoff for 802.11 infrastructure networks (2005, background): “for a more indepth measurement analysis of these overheads [8]), the overall conclusion does not.”
Context caching using neighbor graphs for fast handoffs in a wireless network (2004, background): “[6] suggests various mechanisms to reduce the layer 2 latency to within 20 to 60 ms depending on the client.”
Improving the latency of 802.11 hand-offs using neighbor graphs (2004, methodology): “4 ms, channel dwell time measured in [9], this 22.”
