Re: [6tsch] Mobility in 6TSCH

Hi Pascal and All,

How about "dynamic adjustment". Because,

In steady network (fixed location and predictable traffic load),  the
features of deterministic and low energy consumption have definitely been
provided. What we want to do is, with distributed reservation and RPL, the
deterministic and low energy consumption features can be extended to the
dynamic network (some degree of location change and/or some degree of
traffic load change).

Thought?
