In this book, the authors provide an overview of the 6LoWPAN family of standards, architecture, and related wireless and Internet technology. Starting with an overview of the IPv6 'Internet of Things', readers are offered an insight into how these technologies fit together into a complete architecture.

Personal Networks focuses on networking and security aspects of Personal Networks (PNs). Given a single user, the authors propose an architecture for PNs in which devices are divided into one of two types of nodes: personal and foreign.

Ubiquitous computing is about distributed systems with a difference. It is about hundreds and thousands of computers embedded in everyday devices (such as phones, washing machines, TVs, heating sytems, smartcards, etc) communicating with each other over ad--hoc wireless networks.

Fast and Efficient Context-Aware Services gives a thorough explanation of the state-of-the-art in Context-Aware-Services (CAS). The authors describe all major terms and components of CAS, defining context and discussing the requirements of context-aware applications and their use in 3rd generation services.

Find out how the exciting new developments towards 4G mobile services and technologies will put the user at centre stage. Towards 4G Technologies provides a comprehensive explanation of future networking and service delivering technologies for next generation mobile systems.

Due to the dramatic increase in competition over the last few years, it has become more and more important for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to run an efficient business and offer an adequate Quality of Service. The Competitive Internet Service Provider is a comprehensive guide for those seeking to do just that.

IAX analyses the capabilities of the IAX protocol and its ability to meet VoIP Service Provider requirements. Some scenarios of introducing IAX within operational architectures are also discussed.

This book explores the practicalities of secure voice communication management. The author discusses various communication mediums, highlighting their technical aspects and their security risks. Readers will also find solutions to the problems facing the security systems designer, buyer, or manager.

This guide provides an overview of how Java can be employed to create telecommunications networks of the future. The text deals with issues such as call processing, multimedia processing, mobile routing agents, active networks, XML, network management with EJB, Servlets, JSP CORBA and RMI.

The management of IP networks and systems is based on the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and the SNMP management architecture. This poses a number of problems some are related to the scalability and expressiveness of SNMP, others to the way the design of SNMP-based management platforms historically evolve. This work covers this subject.

Mobile Peer to Peer (P2P): A Tutorial Guide discusses the potential of wireless communication among mobile devices forming mobile peer to peer networks. This book provides the basic programming skills required to set up wireless communication links between mobile devices, offering a guide to the development process of mobile peer to peer networks.

"Within the set of many identifier-locator separation designs for the Internet, HIP has progressed further than anything else we have so far. It is time to see what HIP can do in larger scale in the real world. In order to make that happen, the world needs a HIP book, and now we have it.

Save time & resources with this comprehensive guide to automation configuration for the value-added IP services of the future.

As the Internet becomes increasingly heterogeneous, the issue of congestion control becomes ever more important. In order to maintain good network performance, mechanisms must be provided to prevent the network from being congested for any significant period of time.

Grid computing is applying the resources of many computers in a network to a single problem at the same time. This book covers various aspects of grid technology from motivation to applications. It is suitable for researchers in computing and engineering, physicists, statisticians, engineers and mathematicians and IT policy makers.

Provides an overview of the service technologies available to telecoms operators working in a post convergence world.
