In the midst of the current computing revolution, users demand ever-enhanced and reliable content delivery networks (CDNs) as a means to access the latest online video, news article, music, and or other information. These delivery networks have the potential to improve users' experiences and decrease network response time, while also allowing content providers to invest in a shared infrastructure at reduced cost. Next Generation Content Delivery Infrastructures delivers state-of-the-art research on current and future Internet-based content delivery networking topics, bringing to the forefront...

This book has a specific focus on advanced methods for programming Body Sensor Networks (BSNs) based on the reference SPINE project. It features an on-line website (http: //spine.deis.unical.it) to support readers in developing their own BSN application/systems and covers new emerging topics on BSNs such as collaborative BSNs, BSN design methods, autonomic BSNs, integration of BSNs and pervasive environments, and integration of BSNs with cloud computing. The book provides a description of real BSN prototypes with the possibility to see on-line demos and download the software to test them...
