This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Thyrrhenian International Workshop on Digital Communication, IWDC 2001, held in Taormina, Italy in September 2001. The 46 revised full papers presented are a mix of invited papers and selected submitted papers and reflect the state of the art in multiservice IP network research and development. The book offers topical sections on WDM technologies for the next generation Internet, mobile and wireless Internet access, QoS in the next generation Internet, multicast and routing in IP networks, mulitmedia services over the Internet, performance of Internet protocols, dynamic service management, and source encoding and Internet applications.

Internet tomography, introduced from basic principles through to techniques, tools and applications, is the subject of this book. The design of Internet Tomography Measurement Systems (ITMS) aimed at mapping the Internet performance profile spatially and temporally over paths between probing stations is a particular focus. The Internet Tomography Measurement System design criteria addressed include: • Minimally-invasive, independent and autonomous, active or passive measurement; • Flexibility and scalability; • Capability of targeting local, regional and global Internet paths and underlying IP networks; • Compliance with the standardised performance methodologies and quality of service (QoS) metrics such as thoseof the Internet Engineering Task Force’s IP Performance Metrics Working Group. The book also features: • The use of Internet tomography measurement in modelling support, through network simulation and emulation, for real network and service design and analysis, and new service deployment; • The exploration of spatial and temporal Internet performance variations by means of scenario-based analysis using real-time Internet performance data; • Aspects of Internet tomography in next generation wireless network – wireless NGN – architectures; • The role of ITMS in Service Level Agreement design, implementation and compliance.

A rigorous yet accessible treatment of the fundamental theory and algorithms of network tomography.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post proceedings of the International Conference on Information Networking, ICOIN 2004, held in Busan, Korea, in February 2004. The 104 revised full papers presented were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and revision. The papers are organized in topical sections on mobile Internet and ubiquitous computing; QoS, measurement and performance analysis; high-speed network technologies; next generation Internet architecture; security; and Internet applications.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Traffic Monitoring and Analysis, TMA 2011, held in Vienna, Austria, on April 27, 2011 - co-located with EW 2011, the 17th European Wireless Conference. The workshop is an initiative from the COST Action IC0703 "Data Traffic Monitoring and Analysis: Theory, Techniques, Tools and Applications for the Future Networks". The 10 revised full papers and 6 poster papers presented together with 4 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 29 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on traffic analysis, applications and privacy, traffic classification, and a poster session.
