Teleradiology consists of a set of added-value telematic services, implemented over an advanced telecommunications infrastructure and supported by different information technologies and related applications. The main goal of teleradiology is to provide different levels of support for remote diagnostic imaging procedures. This paper considers technological advances in this important area, includ...

With the incoming introduction of 5G networks and advancement in technologies such as network function virtualization software defined networking, new emerging networking use cases are taking shape. One technology is Internet Vehicles (IoV), which describes an interconnected system vehicles infrastructure. Coupled with recent developments artificial intelligence machine learning, IoV transforme...

Winter conditions are dominating the road traffic platform in the Northern Scandinavia, and the weather services play an important role in successful winter road traffic operations. Intelligent Road project is contributing towards tackling this challenge and aims to support the development of business community in Northern Scandinavian region by road safety provision via vehicular networking ba...

Pervasive networking environment as social infrastructure has been going to become a reality, especially through the recent considerable progress of semiconductor technology. Considering the case where next generation of pervasive networking is realized over ad hoc network suitable for emergency and some tentative event, a project named “Ad hoc and Ubiquitous Communication Environment” has begu...

The increasing cost of powering high performance networking infrastructure has led to the proposal of various energy saving schemes. The On/Off technique, being the most common energy saving scheme, consists of powering down partially or entirely a network infrastructure for energy saving purposes. Despite their capability to achieve great energy savings, On/Off networks experience high packet-...

The Host Identity Indirection Infrastructure (Hi3) is a networking architecture for mobile hosts, derived from the Internet Indirection Infrastructure (i3) and the Host Identity Protocol (HIP). Hi3 has efficient support for secure mobility and multihoming, which both are crucial for future Internet applications. In this paper, we describe and analyze Hi3 in detail. Compared to existing solution...

Intrusion detection and vulnerability analysis play the same important roles in wireless infrastructure as in wired infrastructure. In this chapter we briefly present the methods and technologies of intrusion detection and vulnerability analysis. Then we give the security issues in various wireless networking technologies, analyze the vulnerability of the enabling technologies for the mobile co...

Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) by definition operate without pre-established infrastructure. On the one hand side, this can be seen as an advantage since it makes them usable in situations where an infrastructure is not available, such as, e.g., in settings of emergency response. On the other hand, the lack of infrastructure poses difficult challenges to protocol design and software architectu...

Recent development of wireless technologies, networking infrastructure, and mobile devices has contributed to the rapid growth of mobile commerce (m-commerce). While e-commerce continues to impact the global business environment, the focus has been directed towards wireless mobile computing. Given this trend, telecommunications is perhaps the key to all interconnection, information systems, and...

Modern networking applications replicate data and services widely, leading to a need for locationindependent routing – the ability to route queries directly to objects using names that are independent of the objects’ physical locations. Two important properties of a routing infrastructure are routing locality and rapid adaptation to arriving and departing nodes. We show how these two properties...
