Left Out of the Bargain
Over the past decade, countries have increasingly used settlements that is, any procedure short of a full trial to conclude foreign bribery cases and have imposed billions in monetary sanctions. There exists a gap in knowledge, however, regarding settlement practices around the world and the disposition of these monetary sanctions notably through the lens of recovery of stolen assets. Left out of the Bargain, a study by the Stolen Asset Recovery Initiative (StAR), provides an overview of settlement practices by civil and common law countries that have been active in the fight against foreign bribery. Using the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC) as its point of reference, th...
Wired/Wireless Internet Communications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Wired/Wireless Internet Communications, WWIC 2007, held in Coimbra, Portugal in May 2007. The 32 revised full papers cover transport layer issues, handover and QoS, traffic engineering, audio/video over IP, IEEE 802.11 WLANs, sensor networks, protocols for ad-hoc and mesh networks, as well as OFDM systems.
Mobile Multimedia
Mobile Multimedia is defined as a set of protocols and standards for multimedia information exchange over wireless networks. Therefore the book is organised into four parts. The introduction part, which consists of two chapters introduces the readers to the basic ideas behind mobility management and provides the business and technical drivers, which initiated the mobile multimedia revolution. Part two, which consists of six chapters, explains the enabling technologies for mobile multimedia with respect to data communication protocols and standards. Part three contains two chapters and is dedicated for how information can be retrieved over wireless networks whether it is voice, text, or multimedia information. Part four with its four chapters will clarify in a simple a self-implemented way how scarce resources can be managed and how system performance can be evaluated.
Traffic and QoS Management in Wireless Multimedia Networks
The current book provides a final report of activity performed by the COST 290 Action, ‘‘Traffic and QoS Management in Wireless Multimedia Networks,’’ which ran from March 10, 2004, until June 3, 2008. After an introduction to the COST framework and the Action’s survey time-frame and activities, the main part of the book addresses a number of technical issues, which are structured into several chapters. All those issues have been carefully investigated by the COST 290 community during the course of the project – the information presented in this book can be regarded as ultimate for each particular topic; every open research issue addressed in the book is described carefully, corr...
Architecture and Design for the Future Internet
Architecture and Design for the Future Internet addresses the Networks of the Future and the Future Internet, focusing on networks aspects, offering both technical and non-technical perspectives. It presents the main findings of 4WARD (Architecture and Design for the Future Internet), a European Integrated Project within Framework Programme 7, which addressed this area from an innovative approach. Today’s network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level, while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimise and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architectu...
Wired/Wireless Internet Communications
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Wired/Wireless Internet Communications, WWIC 2006, held in Bern, Switzerland, in May 2006. The book presents 29 revised full papers, organized in topical sessions on wireless networks, UMTS and OFDM, mobile ad-hoc networks, power saving and sensor networks, voice and video over wireless networks, mobility, TCP, signalling, charging, and security.
Mobility Management and Quality-Of-Service for Heterogeneous Networks
Considerable attention is currently devoted worldwide towards mobility issues and challenges such as those arising from the integration of the next generation Internet over terrestrial digital TV, mobile user location management and multi-service mobile networks subject to quality of service (QoS) routing.This book follows Heterogeneous Networks: Performance Modelling and Analysis, describes recent advances in mobile and wireless networks and the Internet reflecting the state-of-the-art technology and research achievements in mobility management, performance enhancement, optimal admission control and QoS worldwide.Technical topics discussed in the book include• Mobility Management;• Opti...
Performance Modelling and Analysis of Heterogeneous Networks
Over the recent years, a considerable amount of effort has been devoted, both in industry and academia, towards the performance modelling, evaluation and prediction of convergent multi-service heterogeneous networks, such as wireless and optical networks, towards the design and dimensioning of the next and future generation Internets.This book follows Heterogeneous Networks: Traffic Engineering, Performance Evaluation Studies and Tools and presents recent advances in networks of diverse technology reflecting the state-of-the-art technology and research achievements in performance modelling, analysis and applications worldwide.Technical topics discussed in the book include:• Multiservice Sw...
Wired / Wireless Internet Communication
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Wired / Wireless Internet Communications, WWIC, held in Santorini island, Greece during June 6-8, 2012. The 23 revised full papers and 6 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers are organized in six thematically-distinct technical sessions, covering the following major topics: virtual networks and clouds, multimedia systems, wireless sensor networks and localization, delay-tolerant and opportunistic networks, handover techniques and channel access, and ad hoc networks
