The 30 revised full and 16 workshop papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 68 submissions. The papers are thematically grouped as follows: Advanced Techniques for IoT and WSNs; SDN and Network Virtualization; eHealth and Telemedicine Mobile Applications; Security and Privacy Preservation; Communication Reliability and Protocols; Spatial Modulation Techniques; Hardware Implementation and Antenna Design.
This book begins with a historical overview of the evolution of mobile technologies and addresses two key questions: why do we need 6G? and what will 6G be? The remaining chapters of this book are organized into three parts: Part I covers the foundation of an end-to-end 6G system by presenting 6G vision, driving forces, key performance indicators, and societal requirements on digital inclusion, sustainability, and intelligence. Part II presents key radio technology components for the 6G communications to deliver extreme performance, including new radio access technologies at high frequencies, joint communications and sensing, AI-driven air interface, among others. Part III describes key enablers for intelligent 6G networking, including network disaggregation, edge computing, data-driven management and orchestration, network security and trustworthiness, among others. This book is relevant to researchers, professionals, and academics working in 5G/6G and beyond.

The inadequate use of wireless spectrum resources has recently motivated researchers and practitioners to look for new ways to improve resource efficiency. As a result, new cognitive radio technologies have been proposed as an effective solution. The Handbook of Research on Software-Defined and Cognitive Radio Technologies for Dynamic Spectrum Management examines the emerging technologies being used to overcome radio spectrum scarcity. Providing timely and comprehensive coverage on topics pertaining to channel estimation, spectrum sensing, communication security, frequency hopping, and smart antennas, this research work is essential for use by educators, industrialists, and graduate students, as well as academicians researching in the field.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 6th International ICST Conference on Mobile Multimedia Communications (MOBIMEDIA 2010) held in Lisbon, Portugal, in September 2010, which was accompanied by the First International Workshop on Cognitive Radio and Cooperative Strategies for POWER Saving (C2POWER 2010), the Workshop on Impact of Scalable Video Coding on Multimedia Provisioning (SVCVision 2010), and the First International Workshop on Energy-efficient and Reconfigurable Transceivers (EERT 2010). The 59 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and are organized in topical sections on advanced techniques for video transmission; multimedia distribution; modelling of wireless systems; cellular networks; mobility concepts for IMT-advances (MOBILIA); media independent handovers (MIH-4-MEDIA); and IP-based emergency applications and services for next generation networks (PEACE).

They are organized in the following topical sections: social media strategy and digital business; digital marketing and customer relationship management; adoption and diffusion; information sharing on social media; impression, trust, and risk management; data acquisition, management and analytics; e-government and civic engagement; e-society and online communities.
The COVID-19 pandemic demonstrated the necessity for establishing practical strategic global education collaboration throughout the world. The challenges are serious and come in many forms, including but not limited to educational policies, technology limitations, economic, mental health, linguistic barriers, and power struggles. Undoubtedly, international education has a profound impact on the world community, and both teachers and learners need to equip themselves with global critical ways and skills to navigate all kinds of challenges and bring about positive change in the world. The Role of Educators as Agents and Conveyors for Positive Change in Global Education highlights the role of educators as agents and conveyors for positive change in local, regional, and global arenas. As such, it analyzes various conventional and modern educational and learning theories and teaching pedagogies to promote global citizenship among students and teachers. Covering key topics such as learning engagement, curriculum, and online learning, this reference work is ideal for higher education faculty, administrators, researchers, practitioners, academicians, instructors, and students.
The COVID-19 pandemic has catalyzed a new era in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning and teaching by shifting EFL education from the face-to-face learning paradigm to the online and distance learning paradigm. Teachers and students have faced several challenges such as choosing appropriate web tools for presenting content either synchronously or asynchronously, motivating students to participate, and assessing students’ learning. Additionally, this shift to emergency remote online learning represents a challenge for students, particularly with managing their own learning. Taking into account that many students attend low-income schools with limited resources that lack reliable acc...
Explores the fundamentals required to understand, analyze, and implement space modulation techniques (SMTs) in coherent and non-coherent radio frequency environments This book focuses on the concept of space modulation techniques (SMTs), and covers those emerging high data rate wireless communication techniques. The book discusses the advantages and disadvantages of SMTs along with their performance. A general framework for analyzing the performance of SMTs is provided and used to detail their performance over several generalized fading channels. The book also addresses the transmitter design of these techniques with the optimum number of hardware components and the use of these techniques i...
