"Two of the fastest growing sectors of communications today are mobile and Internet, both of which have had a profound effect on people's lives. The convergence between these two sectors not only presents great opportunities for the future of 'unplugged' telecommunications, but also great challenges in understanding the relative position of different technologies in this future.This book reviews the contribution of different wireless access technologies to that future and looks at the opportunities of opening up access to telecommunications systems, via application programming interfaces (APIs). The economic and regulatory issues associated with wireless communications are also discussed, with a look at the history and potential future of mobility from a user perspective."

"This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the Third International ICST Conference Mobile Lightweight Wireless Systems (MOBILIGHT 2011) held in Bilbao, Spain on May 9-10. 2011. In numbers, MOBILIGHT 2011 was organized as a 2-day single-track event with 18 technical presentations, and 3 specialized workshops focused on opportunistic sensing and processing in mobile wireless sensor and cellular networks (MOBISENSE), multimode wireless access networks (MOWAN) and strategic network planning applied to market regulation (NETSTRAT), totaling to 34 papers presented during the conference and included in the proceedings"

"This monograph develops a framework for modeling and solving utility maximization problems in nonconvex wireless systems. The first part develops a model for utility optimization in wireless systems. The model is general enough to encompass a wide array of system configurations and performance objectives. Based on the general model, a set of methods for solving utility maximization problems is developed in the second part of the book. The development is based on a careful examination of the properties that are required for the application of each method. This part focuses on problems whose initial formulation does not allow for a solution by standard methods and discusses alternative approaches. The last part presents two case studies to demonstrate the application of the proposed framework. In both cases, utility maximization in multi-antenna broadcast channels is investigated."

"This book reviews the challenges of all-optical and wireless networks for the future Internet, with a focus on cross-layer design and optimization. Features : presents a thorough introduction to major networking modes and their effect on Internet development; proposes a new structure favorable for all-optical packet switching, discusses a new quality of service (QoS) provisioning approach, which overcomes the scalability problem of IntServ and the coarse QoS granularity of DiffServ, describes the end-to-end arguments in Internet design, before investigating a solution to congestion control problems in multi-hop wireless and all-optical networks, examines how to exploit multiple-input-multiple-output technology to improve network performance in centralized wireless networks, surveys green networking strategies from a quantitative perspective, suggests a strategic vision for possible developments of network technology for the future Internet."

"This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Ad-hoc, Mobile, and Wireless Networks, ADHOC-NOW 2012 held in Belgrade, Serbia, July 9-11, 2012. The 36 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 76 submissions. The accepted papers cover a wide spectrum of traditional networking topics ranging from routing to the application layer, to localization in various networking environments such as wireless sensor and ad-hoc networks, and give insights in a variety of application areas."
