Wireless Internet

This guide for developers and architects presents a technical overview of wireless Internet technology, applications, and content issues. The text begins with a discussion of basic wireless concepts and technological trends. Next, the construction of messaging, browsing, and interactive and conversational voice portal applications is described. The final section is devoted to the architecture of the wireless Internet. Coverage extends to a discussion of mCommerce servers. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.

Recent advances in mobile and wireless communication and personal computer technology have created a new paradigm for information processing. Today, mobile and wireless communications exit in many forms, providing different types of services. Existing forms of mobile and wireless communications continue to experience rapid growth and new applications and approaches are being spawned at an increasing rate. Recently, the mobile and wireless Internet has become one of the most important issues in the telecommunications arena. The development of the mobile and wireless Internet is the evolution of several different technologies coming together to make the Internet more accessible. Technologies such as the Internet, wireless networks, and mobile computing have merged to form the mobile and wireless Internet. The mobile and wireless Internet extends traditional Internet and World Wide Web services to wireless devices such as cellular phones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) and notebooks. Mobile and wireless Internet c:an give users access to personalized information anytime and anywhere they need it, and thus empower them to make decisions more quickly, and bring them closer to friends, family, and work colleagues. Wireless data communication methods have been around for sometime.

This book constitutes the refereed post-conference proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Wireless Internet , WiCON 2017, held in Tianjin, China, in December 2017. The 42 full papers were selected from 70 submissions and cover the following topics: wireless networking, massive MIMO and mmWave, WSNs and VANETs, security and IoT, wireless communications, cloud and big data networking.

This brief proposes that the keys to internet cross-layer optimization are the development of non-standard implicit primal-dual solvers for underlying optimization problems, and design of jointly optimal network protocols as decomposition of such solvers. Relying on this novel design-space oriented approach, the author develops joint TCP congestion control and wireless-link scheduling schemes for wireless applications over Internet with centralized and distributed (multi-hop) wireless links. Different from the existing solutions, the proposed schemes can be asynchronously implemented without message passing among network nodes; thus they are readily deployed with current infrastructure. Moreover, global convergence/stability of the proposed schemes to optimal equilibrium is established using the Lyapunov method in the network fluid model. Simulation results are provided to evaluate the proposed schemes in practical networks.
