This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Telecommunications, ICT 2004, held in Fortaleza, Brazil in August 2004. The 188 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 430 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on multimedia services, antennas, transmission technologies and wireless networks, communication theory, telecommunication pricing and billing, network performance and telecommunication services, active network and mobile agents, optical photonic techniques, optical networks, ad-hoc networks, signal processing, network performance and MPLS, traffic engineering, SIP, Qos and switches, network operation management, mobility and broadband wireless, cellular system evolution, personal communication, satellites, mobility management, network reliability, ATM and Web services, security, switching and routing, next generation systems, wireless access, Internet, etc.

Welcometothe11thInternationalConferenceonTelecommunications(ICT2004)ho- ed by the city of Fortaleza (Brazil). As with other ICT events in the past, this professional meeting continues to be highly competitive and very well perceived by the international networking community, - tracting excellent contributions and active participation. This year, a total of 430 papers from 36 countries were submitted, from which 188 were accepted. Each paper was - viewed by several members of the ICT2004 Technical Program Committee. We were very pleased to receive a large percentage of top-quality contributions.

In addition to the conference regular sessions, seven tutorials and a workshop were organized.Thetutorialsfocusedonspecialtopicsdealingwithnext-generationnetworks. The workshop focused on particular problems and solutions in heavily distributed and shareable environments. We would like to thank the ICT 2004 Technical Program Committee members and referees. Without their support, the creation of such a broad conference program would not be possible. We also thank all the authors who made a particular effort to contribute to ICT2004. We truly believe that due to all these efforts the ?nal conference program consisted of top-quality contributions. We are also indebted to many individuals and organizations that made this conference possible. In particular, we would like to thank the members of the ICT2004 Organizing Committee for their help in all aspects of the organization of this professional meeting.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th IEEE International Conference on High Speed Networking and Multimedia Communications, HSNMC 2004, held in Toulouse, France in June/July 2004. The 101 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 266 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on quality of service, QoS, DiffServ, and performance analysis; scheduling and resource allocation; MPLS; routing and multicast; mobile networks, mobile IP, 3G/UMTS; IEEE 802.11 networks and ad hoc networks; wireless and WLAN; optical networks and WDM; applications and software development; and security and privacy.

This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 3rd International IFIP-TC6 Networking Conference, Networking 2004. Conferences in the Networking series span the interests of several distinct, but related, TC6 working groups, including Working Groups 6.2, 6.3, and 6.8. Re?ecting this, the conference was structured with three Special Tracks: (i) Networking Technologies, Services, and Protocols; (ii) Performance of Computer and Communication Networks; and (iii) Mobile and Wireless Communications. However, beyond providing a forum for the presentation of high-quality - search in various complementary aspects of networking, the conference was also targetedtocontributingtoauni?edviewofthe?eldandtofosteringtheinter- tion and exchange of fruitful ideas between the various related (and overlapping) specialized subcommunities therein. Towards this second objective, more than a few conference sessions (and thematic sections in this book) ‘cut across’ the Special Tracks, along more generic or fundamental concepts. Networking 2004 was fortunate to attract very high interest among the c- munity, and the conference received 539 submissions from 44 countries in all ?ve continents. These ?gures correspond to a remarkable increase in subm- sions from the previous very successful events (roughly, a 156% increase over Networking 2000 and 71% over Networking 2002), and indicate that Netw- king conferences are progressively becoming established as worldwide reference events in the ?eld.

"This book presents a wide range of the most current issues related to the planning, design, maintenance, and management of telecommunications and networking technologies and applications in organizations"--Provided by publisher.

This book discusses the structure and performance of networks in the context of the services they provide. Chapters are devoted to public and private networks, ISDN, intelligent networks, mobile radio networks and broadband networks.

This volume compiles the major results of conference participants from the "Third International Conference in Network Analysis" held at the Higher School of Economics, Nizhny Novgorod in May 2013, with the aim to initiate further joint research among different groups. The contributions in this book cover a broad range of topics relevant to the theory and practice of network analysis, including the reliability of complex networks, software, theory, methodology, and applications. Network analysis has become a major research topic over the last several years. The broad range of applications that can be described and analyzed by means of a network has brought together researchers, practitioners from numerous fields such as operations research, computer science, transportation, energy, biomedicine, computational neuroscience and social sciences. In addition, new approaches and computer environments such as parallel computing, grid computing, cloud computing, and quantum computing have helped to solve large scale network optimization problems.
