Opis

This volume presents proceedings from the 19th IFIP World Computer Congress in Santiago, Chile. The proceedings of the World Computer Congress are a product of the gathering of 2,000 delegates from more than 70 countries to discuss a myriad of topics in the ICT domain. Of particular note, this marks the first time that a World Computer Congress has been held in a Latin American country. Topics in this series include:

• The 4th International Conference on Theoretical Computer Science
• Education for the 21st Century- Impact of ICT and Digital Resources
• Mobile and Wireless Communication Networks
• Ad-Hoc Networking
• Network Control and Engineering for QoS, Security, and Mobility
• The Past and Future of Information Systems: 1976-2006 and Beyond
• History of Computing and Education
• Biologically Inspired Cooperative Computing
• Artificial Intelligence in Theory and Practice
• Applications in Artificial Intelligence
• Advanced Software Engineering: Expanding the Frontiers of Software

Recenzje

From the reviews:

"I agree with the author that low power consumption technology is a major issue for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). ... In order to improve the performance of these wireless, networks, the author propose the use of a reliability control based on a polling service, along with controlled transmissions. ... I recommend this book as part of the suggested reading list for a one-semester, advanced undergraduate or first-year graduate course on networks." (J. Myerson, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (8), August, 2008)
