Communication systems are now ubiquitous and making them more intelligent remains very challenging. The IFIP International Conference on Intelligence in Communication Systems is an effort to bring together researchers and practitioners who represent the latest developments in this area. This volume contains selected papers from the conference in the following focus areas: ad hoc networks / hybrid networks / WLAN; security, privacy and consumer protection; adaptive architectures and protocols; flexible QoS and QoS management; flexible service specification, validation, searching and querying; service composition and Web services; personal, terminal and node mobility; programmable and active networks.
Innovative tools and techniques for the development and design of software systems are essential to the problem solving and planning of software solutions. Software Design and Development: Concepts, Methodologies, Tools, and Applications brings together the best practices of theory and implementation in the development of software systems. This reference source is essential for researchers, engineers, practitioners, and scholars seeking the latest knowledge on the techniques, applications, and methodologies for the design and development of software systems.
This book covers all areas concerning mobility and wireless communications. Presented papers deal with cellular networks (2G, 3G and 4G), wireless networks (IEEE802.11, Bluetooth and sensor networks), security, quality of service and applications. Accepted papers represent a good selection of research in wireless communications. They offer an overview and also sharp visions of industrial and scientific work.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in: ? Index to Scientific & Technical Proceedings (ISTP CDROM version / ISI Proceedings)
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Ad-Hoc, Mobile, and Wireless Networks, ADHOC-NOW 2008, held in Sophia-Antipolis, France, September 2008. The 40 revised full papers and the 15 poster presentations were carefully reviewed and selected from 110 submissions. The papers deal with advances in Ad-Hoc networks, i.e. wireless, self-organizing systems formed by co-operating nodes within communication range of each other that form temporary networks. Their topology is dynamic, decentralized, ever changing and the nodes may move around arbitrarily.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Joint Conference an Ambient Intelligence, AmI 2013, held in Dublin, Ireland, in December 2013. The 15 revised full papers, 4 papers from the landscape track, 3 papers from the doctoral colloquium and 6 demo and poster papers were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and are presented with 6 workshop descriptions. The papers cover a variety of multi-disciplinary topics in computer science, human computer interaction, electrical engineering, industrial design, behavioral sciences, distributed devices, ubiquitous and communication technologies, pervasive computing, intelligent user interfaces and artificial intelligence.
The two-volume set LNICST 150 and 151 constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the First International Internet of Things Summit, IoT360 2014, held in Rome, Italy, in October 2014. This volume contains 74 full papers carefully reviewed and selected from 118 submissions at the following four conferences: the First International Conference on Cognitive Internet of Things Technologies, COIOTE 2014; the First International Conference on Pervasive Games, PERGAMES 2014; the First International Conference on IoT Technologies for HealthCare, HealthyIoT 2014; and the First International Conference on IoT as a Service, IoTaaS 2014. The papers cover the following topics: user-centric IoT; artificial intelligence techniques for the IoT; the design and deployment of pervasive games for various sectors, such as health and wellbeing, ambient assisted living, smart cities and societies, education, cultural heritage, and tourism; delivery of electronic healthcare; patient care and medical data management; smart objects; networking considerations for IoT; platforms for IoTaaS; adapting to the IoT environment; modeling IoTaaS; machine to machine support in IoT.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the ACM/IFIP/USENIX 12th International Middleware Conference, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in December 2011. The 22 revised full papers presented together with 2 industry papers and an invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 125 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on social networks, storage and performance management, green computing and resource management, notification and streaming, replication and caching, security and interoperability, and run-time (re)configuration and inspection.
Mobile context-awareness is a popular research trend in the field of ubiquitous computing. Advances in mobile device sensory hardware and the rise of ‘virtual’ sensors such as web application programming interfaces (APIs) mean that the mobile user is exposed to a vast range of data that can be used for new advanced applications. Mobile Context Awareness presents work from industrial and academic researchers, focusing on novel methods of context acquisition in the mobile environment – particularly through the use of physical and virtual sensors – along with research into new applications utilising this context. In addition, the book provides insights into the technical and usability challenges involved in mobile context-awareness, as well as observations on current and future trends in the field.
Bringing together an extensively researched area with an emerging research issue, Context-Aware Computing and Self-Managing Systems presents the core contributions of context-aware computing in the development of self-managing systems, including devices, applications, middleware, and networks. The expert contributors reveal the usefulness of contex
