Reviews & Statements

International contributors in computer engineering, mathematics, information science, and telecommunications describe aspects of network management and traffic engineering for the Internet and distributed computing technologies. They also review emerging technology trends and advanced platforms. Section 1 concentrates on network management and traffic engineering, touching on topics such as security policy specification, workflow scheduling with fault tolerance, privacy in participatory sensing systems, and strategies for agent-based negotiation in e-trade. Section 2, on emerging technologies and advanced platforms, looks at areas such as managing network quality of service in current and future Internet environments, and mobility management issues for next-generation wireless networks. The book will serve as a reference for academics, students, and researchers. Abawajy is affiliated with Deakin University, Australia.
