Management Enabling The Future Internet For Changing Business And New Computing Services

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th Asia-Pacific Network Operations and Management Symposium, APNOMS 2009, held in Jeju, South Korea in September 2009. The 41 revised full papers and 32 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 173 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on network monitoring and measurement, configuration and fault management, management of IP-based networks, autonomous and distributed control, sensor network and P2P management, converged networks and traffic, engineering, SLA and QoS management, active and security management, wireless and mobile network management, and security management.

We are delighted to present the proceedings of the 12th Asia-Paci?c Network Operations and Management Symposium (APNOMS 2009), which was held in Jeju, Korea, during September 23–25, 2009. Recently, various convergences in wired and wireless networks, and conv- gence of telecommunications and broadcastings, are taking place for ubiquitous multimedia service provisioning. For example, broadband IP/MPLS wired n- works are actively converged with IEEE 802.11e wireless LAN, IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN, 3G/4G wireless cellular networks, and direct multimedia bro- cast (DMB) networks. For e?cient support of service provisioning for ubiq- tous multimedia services on the broadband convergencenetworks, well-designed and implemented network operations and management functions with Q- guaranteed tra?c engineering are essential. The converged network will open the way for a new world with emerging new businesses and computing services. The Organizing Committee (OC) selected “Management Enabling the Future Internet for Changing Business and New Computing Services” as the timely theme of APNOMS 2009. Contributions from academia, industry and research institutions met these challengeswith173papersubmissions,fromwhich41high-qualitypapers(23.7% of the submissions) were selected for technical sessions as full papers, and 32 papers were selected as short papers. In addition, we had nine papers in - novation sessions for on-going research. Diverse topics were covered, including Tra?c Trace Engineering, Con?guration and Fault Management, Management of IP-Based Networks, Autonomous and Distributed Control, Sensor Network and P2P Management, Converged Networks and Tra?c Engineering, SLA and QoS Management, Active and Security Management, Wireless and Mobile N- work Management, and Security Management.

The Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data are hot topics in the world of intelligence operations and information gathering. This first-of-its-kind volume reveals the benefits of addressing these topics with the integration of Fusion of Information and Analytics Technologies (FIAT). The book explains how FIAT is materialized into decision support systems that are capable of supporting the prognosis, diagnosis, and prescriptive tasks within complex systems and organizations. This unique resource offers keen insight into how complex systems emerge from the interrelation of social and cognitive information, cyber and physical worlds, and the various models of decision-making and situational awareness. Practitioners also discover the central notions of analytics and information fusion. Moreover the book introduces propos such as integration through a FIAT computational model and applications at the systems level. This book concludes with a list of prospective research activities that can contribute towards the required FIAT integration for critical application domains such as: energy, health, transport and defense and security.

This book focuses on one of the major challenges of the newly created scientific domain known as data science: turning data into actionable knowledge in order to exploit increasing data volumes and deal with their inherent complexity. Actionable knowledge has been qualitatively and intensively studied in management, business, and the social sciences but in computer science and engineering, its connection has only recently been established to data mining and its evolution, ‘Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining’ (KDD). Data mining seeks to extract interesting patterns from data, but, until now, the patterns discovered from data have not always been ‘actionable’ for decision-makers in Socio-Technical Organizations (STO). With the evolution of the Internet and connectivity, STOs have evolved into Cyber-Physical and Social Systems (CPSS) that are known to describe our world today. In such complex and dynamic environments, the conventional KDD process is insufficient, and additional processes are required to transform complex data into actionable knowledge. Readers are presented with advanced knowledge concepts and the analytics and information fusion (AIF) processes aimed at delivering actionable knowledge. The authors provide an understanding of the concept of ‘relation’ and its exploitation, relational calculus, as well as the formalization of specific dimensions of knowledge that achieve a semantic growth along the AIF processes. This book serves as an important technical presentation of relational calculus and its application to processing chains in order to generate actionable knowledge. It is ideal for graduate students, researchers, or industry professionals interested in decision science and knowledge engineering.

This book features a collection of high-quality, peer-reviewed papers presented at the Fifth International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Communication (ICICC 2021) organized by the Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Department of Computer Science and Technology, Dayananda Sagar University, Bengaluru, India, on November 26 – 27, 2021. The book is organized in two volumes and discusses advanced and multi-disciplinary research regarding the design of smart computing and informatics. It focuses on innovation paradigms in system knowledge, intelligence, and sustainability that can be applied to provide practical solutions to a number of problems in society, the environment and industry. Further, the book also addresses the deployment of emerging computational and knowledge transfer approaches, optimizing solutions in various disciplines of science, technology, and healthcare.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th IEEE International Workshop on Modelling Autonomic Communications Environments, MACE 2010, held in Niagara Falls, Canada, in October 2010, as part of the 6th International Conference on Network and Service Management, CNSM 2010. The 10 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 17 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on autonomics in home area networks and multimedia; ontologies, experience, adaptive systems and federation; and modeling for virtualized infrastructure.
