Management of Multimedia on the Internet
In recent years we have witnessed the explosion of multimedia traffic on the Internet. The availability of high bandwidth connections together with the recent advances in high quality video and audio compression techniques have created a fertile ground for the growth of multimedia applications such as interactive video on demand, collaborative distance learning, and remote medical diagnosis. Furthermore, the availability of low bit rate video and audio applications (e.g., H.263 and G.728) and the proliferation of pervasive devices create a new demand for wireless multimedia communication systems. After a decade or more of research and development in multimedia networking, the research community has learned a number of lessons. First, increasing the capacity of the “best effort” networks and services does not provide an effective and permanent solution for offering a guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS). Second, the integration of service and network management is a key element in providing end to end service management. Third, management techniques for Internet multimedia services must be scalable and adaptive to guarantee QoS and maintain fairness with optimal network resource.
Robust Communication Networks: Interconnection and Survivability
This volume contains the proceedings of a DIMACS Workshop on Robust Communication Networks held as part of the Special Year on Networks. Theoreticians and practitioners presented papers on the roles of architectural interconnection and survivability in the design, construction, operation, and application of robust communication networks. Due to the advent of VSLI and fiber optics technologies, it has become possible and feasible to design and construct large scale, high performance, high speed wireline and wireless communication networks that are also robust. This opens many challenging issues and problems for both the theory community and practitioners. Of particular interest is how these technological advances lead the way to new and challenging mathematical frontiers and set the direction for future research on and implementation of robust communication networks. The nine papers chosen for this volume represent the state of the art from a variety of perspectives.
Handbook of Financial Cryptography and Security
The Handbook of Financial Cryptography and Security elucidates the theory and techniques of cryptography and illustrates how to establish and maintain security under the framework of financial cryptography. It applies various cryptographic techniques to auctions, electronic voting, micropayment systems, digital rights, financial portfolios, routing
Active and Programmable Networks
This volume contains the proceedings of the 7th International Working Conference on Active and Programmable Networks (IWAN 2005) that was held during November 21–23, 2005, in Sophia Antipolis, Cote d’ Azur, France, jointly organized by Hitachi Europe and INRIA. IWAN 2005 took place against a backdrop of questions about the viability and - cessity of a conference that deals with an area perceived by many as having run its full course. The Organizing Committee, during the preparations of the conference, took these concerns seriously and reflected them in the theme of this year’s event, entitled “Re-incarnating Active Networking Research,” and expanding the scope of past calls for pap...
Customer-based IP Service Monitoring with Mobile Software Agents
Presenting mobile software agents for Internet servic monitoring, this research monograph discusses newly standardized Internet technologies that allow service providers to offer secured Internet services with quality guarantees. Yet, today the customers of such services have no independent tool to verify (monitor) the service quality. This book shows why mobile software agents are best fit to fill the gap. The book is addressed to mobile agent researchers looking for new and fruitful application areas. It will also be a valuable resource for innovative Internet providers who are looking for a service monitoring infrastructure going beyond monthly reports.
Active Networks
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the IFIP-TC6 6th Annual International Working Conference on Active Networks, IWAN 2004, held in Lawrence, KS, USA in October 2004. The 14 revised full papers presented together with one invited paper are organized in topical sections on active networking systems, active networking security, active networking applications, mobile active networks, and active networking management.
Wired/Wireless Internet Communications
TheInternationalConferenceonWired/WirelessInternetCommunications(WWIC)was held for the second time, following a successful start in 2002, in LasVegas. The goal of theconferencewastopresenthigh-qualityresultsinthe?eld,andtoprovideaframework for research collaboration through focused discussions that designated future research efforts and directions. The number and the quality of submissions indicate that we are well on the way to establishing WWIC as a major event in the ?eld of wired/wireless internet communications. We received around 60 competitive submissions from Europe, North America, the Middle East and the Far East. Each submission was reviewed by at least two experts, although the ma...
Automated Technology for Verification and Analysis
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Automated Technology for Verificaton and Analysis, ATVA 2004, held in Taipei, Taiwan in October/November 2004. The 24 revised full papers presented together with abstracts of 6 invited presentations and 7 special track papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 69 submissions. Among the topics addressed are model-checking theory, theorem-proving theory, state-space reduction techniques, languages in automated verification, parametric analysis, optimization, formal performance analysis, real-time systems, embedded systems, infinite-state systems, Petri nets, UML, synthesis, and tools.
Advances in Computer Science and Information Technology
This volume constitutes the first of three parts of the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Computer Science and Information Technology, CCSIT 2010, held in Bangalore, India, in January 2011. The 59 revised full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected. The papers are organized in topical sections on distributed and parallel systems and algorithms; DSP, image processing, pattern recognition, and multimedia; software engineering; database and data Mining; as well as soft computing, such as AI, neural networks, fuzzy systems, etc.
Quality of Service - IWQoS 2001
Welcome to IWQoS2001 in Karlsruhe! Quality of Service is a very active research field, especially in the networking community. Research in this area has been going on for some time, with results getting into development and finally reaching the stage of products. Trends in research as well as a reality check will be the purpose of this Ninth InternationalW orkshopo n Quality of Service. IWQoS isa ver y successful seriesof workshops and has established itself as one of the premier forums for the presentation and discussion of new research and ideas on QoS. The importance of this workshop series is also reflected in the large number of excellents ubmissions. Nearly 150 papers from all continents were submitted to the workshop, about a fifth of these being short papers. The program committee were very pleased witht he quality of the submissions andh ad the difficult task of selecting the relatively small number of papers which could be accepted for IWQoS2001. Due to the tough competition, many very good papers had to be rejected.
