Congestion control algorithms were implemented for the Internet nearly two decades ago, but mathematical models of congestion control in such a large-scale are relatively new. This text presents models for the development of new protocols that can help make Internet data transfers virtually loss- and delay-free. Introduced are tools from optimization, control theory, and stochastic processes integral to the study of congestion control algorithms.

Features and topics include:

* A presentation of Kelly's convex program formulation of resource allocation on the Internet;

Do you believe in open-source development? Would you like to see your security system grow and learn by itself? Are you sick of paying for software license fees every year that produce little return on investment? And, would you prefer to invest in something you could sell later on to other IT security departments? If you answered yes to these questions, then this is the book for you.
Addressing the issues of fault identification and classification, Self-Healing Systems and Wireless Networks Management presents a method for identifying and classifying faults using...

Personliche Schutzausrustung und mit ihr die Schutzbekleidung sind im Wandel begriffen. Miniaturisierte, Textil-integrierte Computer eroffnen neue Moglichkeiten der Funktionsgestaltung. Mit kontextsensitiven und aktorischen Funktionen ausgestattet und zu Sensornetzwerken verknupft, ubernimmt die intelligente Schutzbekleidung ahnlich einem Fahrerassistenzsystem in einem Automobil die Beobachtung und Signalisierung von Gefahrdungen in einem Arbeitsumfeld. Christof Breckenfelder entwickelt einen methodischen Ansatz fur den Entwurf dieser mobilen Schutzassistenzsysteme. Die Vorteile der...

Traditional wireless sensor networks (WSNs) capture scalar data such as temperature, vibration, pressure, or humidity. Motivated by the success of WSNs and also with the emergence of new technology in the form of low-cost image sensors, researchers have proposed combining image and audio sensors with WSNs to form wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSNs). This introduces practical and research challenges, because multimedia sensors, particularly image sensors, generate huge amounts of data to be processed and distributed within the network, while sensor nodes have restricted battery...

Towards the paramount objective of covering the entire ITS reference model with security and privacy measures, Hagen Stubing develops dedicated solutions for each layer, respectively. On application layer a security architecture in terms of a Public...
