This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First IFIP TC6 / WG 8.8 / WG 11.2 International Workshop on Information Security Theory and Practices: Smart Cards, Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing Systems, WISTP 2007, held in Heraklion, Crete, Greece in May 2007. The 20 revised full papers are organized in topical sections on mobility, hardware and cryptography, privacy, cryptography schemes, smart cards, and small devices.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International IFIP TC6 Conference on Autonomic Networking, AN 2006. The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. The papers are organized in topical sections on autonomic networks, self-configuration, autonomic platform and services, autonomic management and discovery policy-based management, ad hoc, sensor and ambient autonomic networks, and autonomic control of mobile networks.
"She Stands Accused" by Victor MacClure is a series of historical female crime accounts of the lives and deeds of notorious women who were murderers, cheats, and cozeners. Justice was executed for some of them while others were accused of crimes or were acquitted at least in law. Excerpt: "Locusta, the poisoner whom Agrippina, wanting to kill the Emperor Claudius by slow degrees, called into service, and whose technique Nero admired so much that he was fain to put her on his pension list, barely escapes the deodorant. Messalina comes up in memory. And then one finds M. Paul Moinet, in his historical essays En Marge de l'histoire, gracefully pleading for the lady as Messaline la calomniee—yes, and making out a good case for her."
Smart Networks comprises the proceedings of Smartnet'2002, the seventh conference on Intelligence in Networks, which was sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and organized by Working Group 6.7. It was held in Saariselkä, Finland, in April 2002. The conference series closely reflects the developments in networking.
Internet Protocol (IP) networks have, for a number of years, provided the basis for modern communication channels. However, the control and management of these networks needs to be extended so that the required Quality of Service can be achieved. Information about new generations of IP networks is given, covering the future of pervasive networks (that is, networks that arealways present), Wi-Fi, the control of mobility and improved Quality of Service, sensor networks, inter-vehicle communication and optical networks.
Embedded systems are becoming increasingly complex, and as they become more widespread, more capable, and more densely integrated in everyday consumer, household, industrial, and more specialized products, the design and use in applications of such systems requires knowledge of several different disciplines such as electronics, data processing, telecommunications, and networks. Without detailing all aspects of electronics, circuit design, and computer architecture related to the design of embedded systems, this book, written by expert specialists in electronics, data processing and telecommunications and networks, gives important insights into the communication techniques and problems encountered in embedded systems. The book focuses on applications in the area of telecommunications and networks because the vast majority of embedded systems are deployed in communications systems and equipment, and it therefore makes an excellent field-wide case study.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third IFIP-TC6 Networking Conference, NETWORKING 2004, held in Athens, Greece, in May 2004. The 103 revised full papers and 40 revised short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 539 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on network security; TCP performance; ad-hoc networks; wavelength management; multicast; wireless network performance; inter-domain routing; packet classification and scheduling; services and monitoring; admission control; competition in networks; 3G/4G wireless systems; MPLS and related technologies; flow and congestion control; performance of IEEE 802.11; optical networks; TCP and congestion; key management; authentication and DOS prevention; energy aspects of wireless networks; optical network access; routing in ad-hoc networks; fault detection, restoration, and tolerance; QoS metrics, algorithms, and architecture; content distribution, caching, and replication; and routing theory and path computation.
