As far as many consumers and businessmen and women are concerned, increasingly wireline and wireless services, including those provided by
There is much discussion and debate about how to improve the security and privacy of mobile communication systems, both voice
Recent works try to optimise collective communication in grid systems focusing mostly on the optimisation of communications among different clusters.
This paper develops a theoretical perspective on globalization and the Information Society and combines it with a critical usage of
Email has emerged as a dominant form of electronic communication between people. Spam is a major problem for email users,
Recently, many works focus on the implementation of collective communication operations adapted to wide area computational systems, like computational Grids
In this paper we describe a hands-on laboratory oriented instructional package that we have developed for data communications and networking.
Although recent works try to improve collective communication in grid systems by separating intra and inter-cluster communication, the optimisation of
This paper analyzes the pricing of transit traffic in wireless peer-to-peer networks using the concepts of direct and indirect network
For wireless communications, the FCC has fostered competition rather than openness. This has permitted the emergence of vertically integrated end-to-end
A peer-to-peer application architecture is proposed that has the potential to eliminate the back-end servers for hosting services on the
The Internet is changing rapidly the way people around the world communicate, learn, and work. Yet the tremendous benefits of
In asserting a competitive market environment as a justification for regulatory forbearance, the Telecommunications Act of 1996 finally articulated a
This paper presents the multi-threading and internet message communication capabilities of Qu-Prolog. Message addresses are symbolic and the communications package
The shift towards the use of electronic media in scholarly communication appears to be an inescapable imperative. However, these shifts
This paper describes an architecture for a distributing processing system that would allow remote procedure calls to invoke other services
Achieving secure communications in networks has been one of the most important problems in information technology. Dolev, Dwork, Waarts, and
This paper examines the effects of licensing conditions, in particular of spectrum fees, on the pricing and diffusion of mobile
The true costs of high performance computing are currently dominated by software. Addressing these costs requires shifting to high productivity
The Internet has revolutionized the computer and communications world like nothing before. The invention of the telegraph, telephone, radio, and
User interfaces that adapt their characteristics to those of the user are referred to as adaptive interfaces. We propose Adaptive
A variety of tools have been introduced recently that are designed to help people protect their privacy on the Internet.
A new approach to software design based on an agent-oriented architecture is presented. Unlike current research, we consider software to
We present an algorithm for parallelising the TreePM code. We use both functional and domain decompositions. Functional decomposition is used
