Management of Multimedia on the Internet
In recent years we have witnessed the explosion of multimedia traffic on the Internet. The availability of high bandwidth connections together with the recent advances in high quality video and audio compression techniques have created a fertile ground for the growth of multimedia applications such as interactive video on demand, collaborative distance learning, and remote medical diagnosis. Furthermore, the availability of low bit rate video and audio applications (e.g., H.263 and G.728) and the proliferation of pervasive devices create a new demand for wireless multimedia communication systems. After a decade or more of research and development in multimedia networking, the research community has learned a number of lessons. First, increasing the capacity of the “best effort” networks and services does not provide an effective and permanent solution for offering a guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS). Second, the integration of service and network management is a key element in providing end to end service management. Third, management techniques for Internet multimedia services must be scalable and adaptive to guarantee QoS and maintain fairness with optimal network resource.
Ad-Hoc, Mobile, and Wireless Networks
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Ad-Hoc Networks and Wireless, ADHOiNOW 2005, held in Cancun, Mexico in October 2005. The 27 revised full papers presented together with the abstracts of 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from over 100 submissions. The papers discuss architectures, protocols, and algorithms for: access control, scheduling, ad hoc and sensor networks analytic methods and modelling for performance evaluation, characterization, optimization, auto-configuration, incentives and pricing, location awareness, discovery, dependence, and management, mesh networks, new applications, power management, power control, and energy-efficiency, quality-of-service, resource allocation, multimedia, routing (unicast, multicast, etc.), security and privacy, service discovery, systems and testbeds, wireless internet, and data management.
Proceedings of the Third International Network Conference (INC2002)
This book contains the proceedings of the Third International Network Conference (INC 2002), which was held in Plymouth, UK, in July 2002. A total of 72 papers were accepted for inclusion in the conference, and they are presented here in 8 themed chapters. The main topics of the book include: Web Technologies and Applications; Network Technologies; Multimedia over IP; Quality of Service; Security and Privacy; Distributed Technologies; Mobility; and Applications and Impacts. The papers address state-of-the-art research and applications of network technology, arising from both the academic and industrial domains. The book should consequently be of interest to network practitioners, researchers, academics, and technical managers involved in the design, development and use of network systems.
Biocomputing '99 - Proceedings Of The Pacific Symposium
The Pacific Symposium on Biocomputing brings together key researchers from the international biocomputing community. It is designed to be maximally responsive to the need for critical mass in subdisciplines within biocomputing. These proceedings contain peer-reviewed articles in computational biology and bioinformatics.
Converged Networking
This volume forms the edited proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Communications Interworking, held in Perth, Western Australia, from 13-16 October, 2002. In total, 39 research papers were submitted for consideration, and after full refereeing by international referees, 27 papers from authors in 11 countries were accepted for publication. Invited keynote addresses were presented by Dr Hugh Bradlow, Chief Technology Offleer for Telstra Corporation, Australia, and Dr Sathya Rao, Director ofTelscom A.G., Switzerland. The symposium brought together 60 active international researchers and telecommunications engineers to discuss the important questions as to whether there is a conve...

The IBSS is the essential tool for librarians, university departments, research institutions and any public or private institution whose work requires access to up-to-date and comprehensive knowledge of the social sciences.
EurAsia-ICT 2002: Information and Communication Technology
We welcomed participants to the 1st EurAsian Conference on Advances in Information and Communication Technology (EurAsia ICT 2002) held in Iran. The aim of the conference was to serve as a forum to bring together researchers from academia and commercial developers from industry to discuss the current state of the art in ICT, mainly in Europe and Asia. Inspirations and new ideas were expected to emerge from intensive discussions during formal sessions and social events. Keynote addresses, research presentation, and discussion during the conference helped to further develop the exchange of ideas among the researchers, developers, and practitioners who attended. The conference attracted more th...
