Protocols for Multimedia Systems
This conference in Enschede, The Netherlands, is the sixth in a series of international conferences and workshops under the title Protocols for Multimedia Systems, abbreviated as PROMS. The first PROMS workshop took place in June 1994 in Berlin, Germany, followed by workshops in Salzburg, Austria (October 1995) and Madrid, Spain (October 1996). In 1997, PROMS formed a temporary alliance with Multimedia Networking, a conference previously held in Aizu, Japan, in 1995. This led to the international conference on Protocols for Multimedia Systems – Multimedia Networking, PROMS MmNet, that took place in Santiago, Chile (November 1997). Since then PROMS has been announced as an international con...
Real Time Computing
NATO's Division of Scientific and Environmental Affairs sponsored this Advan ced Study Institute because it was felt to be timely to cover this important and challengjng subject for the first time in the framework of NATO's ASI programme. The significance of real-time systems in everyones' life is rapidly growing. The vast spectrum of these systems can be characterised by just a few examples of increasing complexity: controllers in washing machines, air traffic control systems, control and safety systems of nuclear power plants and, finally, future military systems like the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). The import ance of such systems for the well-being of people requires considerable ...

Challenges of Expanding Internet: E-Commerce, E-Business, and E-Government
2.1 E-Government: e-Governance and e-Democracy The term Electronic Government (e-Government), as an expression, was coined after the example of Electronic Commerce. In spite of being a relatively recent expression, e-Government designates a field of activity that has been with us for several decades and which has attained a high level of penetration in many countries2. What has been observed over the recent years is a shift on the broadness of the e-Government concept. The ideas inside e-Governance and e- Democracy are to some extent promising big changes in public administration. The demand now is not only simply delivering a service - line. It is to deliver complex and new services, which are all citizen-centric. Another important demand is related to the improvement of citizen's participation in governmental processes and decisions so that the governments' transparency and legitimacy are enforced. In order to fulfill these new demands, a lot of research has been done over the recent years (see Section 3) but many challenges are still to be faced, not only in the technological field, but also in the political and social aspects.
Trends in Distributed Systems: Towards a Universal Service Market
USM 2000 is the third event in a series of international IFIP/GI conferences on Trends in Distributed Systems. Following the venues in Aachen, Germany (1996) and Hamburg, Germany (1998), this event in Munich considers the trend towards a Universal Service Market – USM 2000. The trend towards a universal service market has many origins, e.g., the integration of telecom and data communications, the deregulation e?orts with respect to telco markets, the globalization of information, the virtualization of companies, the requirement of a short time-to-market, the advances in network technologies, the increasing acceptance of e-commerce, and the increase in - bility. This leads to new business-t...
Global Telehealth 2012
Health systems worldwide are under increasing pressure to deliver services in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Telehealth, or the delivery of health services at a distance, has an important role to play in achieving this. Communication technologies are becoming more readily accessible and affordable, and an array of telehealth applications are emerging which have potential benefits for patients and clinicians, particularly in areas where health services are traditionally limited, non-existent or difficult to access.This book presents papers selected from contributions to the 2nd International Conference on Global

The theme of BMSD 2011 was "Business Models and Advanced Software Systems," and the related scientific areas of interest were: business models and requirements, business models and services, business models and software, and information systems architecture.
Handbuch E-Money, E-Payment & M-Payment
Im Zuge der Bemühungen um einen einheitlichen europäischen Zahlungsverkehrsraum, die sogenannte Single Euro Payment Area, gewinnt der bargeldlose Zahlungsverkehr auch im Retailbereich zunehmend an Bedeutung. Innovative Zahlungsmethoden wie Electronic Money, Electronic Payment und Mobile Payment sind bereits wichtige Themen und werden zweifellos den Zahlungsverkehr der Zukunft noch stärker bestimmen. Das vorliegende Handbuch bietet einen umfassenden und kenntnisreichen Einblick in dieses hochaktuelle Gebiet. Internationale ZahlungsverkehrsexpertInnen stellen die aktuellen Entwicklungen ebenso wie sicherheitstechnische, rechtliche und politische Aspekte innovativer Zahlungsverkehrsformen dar, liefern detaillierte Analysen von Praxisbeispielen und beantworten die Frage, welche Faktoren aus Sicht der unterschiedlichen Stakeholder für den Erfolg von Zahlungsverkehrslösungen entscheidend sind.
