Wireless is a term used to describe telecommunications in which electromagnetic waves (rather than some form of wire) carry the signal over part or all of the communication path and the network is the totality of switches, transmission links and terminals used for the generation, handling and receiving of telecoms traffic. Wireless networks are rapidly evolving, and are playing an increasing role in the lives of people throughout the world and ever-larger numbers of people are relying on the technology directly or indirectly. The area of wireless communications is an extremely rich field for research, due to the difficulties posed by the wireless medium and the increasing demand for better a...
The aim of the book is to provide latest research findings, innovative research results, methods and development techniques from both theoretical and practical perspectives related to the emerging areas of information networking and applications. Networks of today are going through a rapid evolution and there are many emerging areas of information networking and their applications. Heterogeneous networking supported by recent technological advances in low power wireless communications along with silicon integration of various functionalities such as sensing, communications, intelligence and actuations are emerging as a critically important disruptive computer class based on a new platform, n...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Joint Conference on E-Business and Telecommunications, ICETE 2013, held in Reykjavik, Iceland, in July 2013. ICETE is a joint international conference integrating four major areas of knowledge that are divided into six corresponding conferences: International Conference on Data Communication Networking, DCNET; International Conference on E-Business, ICE-B; International Conference on Optical Communication Systems, OPTICS; International Conference on Security and Cryptography, SECRYPT; International Conference on Wireless Information Systems, WINSYS; and International Conference on Signal Processing and Multimedia, SIGMAP. The 24 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 341 submissions. The papers cover the following key areas of e-business and telecommunications: data communication networking, e-business, optical communication systems, security and cryptography, signal processing and multimedia applications, wireless information networks and systems.
The field of wireless networks and mobile computing is an area of very active investigation. Though, the majority of the research and development, focuses on devising efficient communication protocols so as to provide a stable communication channel to allow the information flow freely among the mobile clients. Recently, the investigation turned its interest also to the problem of providing advanced data management functionalities to the clients. In order to support data-intensive applications over the wireless medium, several techniques have been proposed addressing issues like security, quality of service, service discovery, data dissemination, location management, location-based and transa...
Combining and integrating cross-institutional data remains a challenge for both researchers and those involved in patient care. Patient-generated data can contribute precious information to healthcare professionals by enabling monitoring under normal life conditions and also helping patients play a more active role in their own care. This book presents the proceedings of MEDINFO 2019, the 17th World Congress on Medical and Health Informatics, held in Lyon, France, from 25 to 30 August 2019. The theme of this year’s conference was ‘Health and Wellbeing: E-Networks for All’, stressing the increasing importance of networks in healthcare on the one hand, and the patient-centered perspectiv...

This book presents new research contributions in the above-mentioned fields. Information and communication technologies (ICT) have an integral role in today’s society. Four major driving pillars in the field are computing, which nowadays enables data processing in unprecedented speeds, informatics, which derives information stemming for processed data to feed relevant applications, networking, which interconnects the various computing infrastructures and cybersecurity for addressing the growing concern for secure and lawful use of the ICT infrastructure and services. Its intended readership covers senior undergraduate and graduate students in Computer Science and Engineering and Electrical Engineering, as well as researchers, scientists, engineers, ICT managers, working in the relevant fields and industries.
Although the existing layering infrastructure--used globally for designing computers, data networks, and intelligent distributed systems and which connects various local and global communication services--is conceptually correct and pedagogically elegant, it is now well over 30 years old has started create a serious bottleneck. Using Cross-Layer Techniques for Communication Systems: Techniques and Applications explores how cross-layer methods provide ways to escape from the current communications model and overcome the challenges imposed by restrictive boundaries between layers. Written exclusively by well-established researchers, experts, and professional engineers, the book will present basic concepts, address different approaches for solving the cross-layer problem, investigate recent developments in cross-layer problems and solutions, and present the latest applications of the cross-layer in a variety of systems and networks.
