Personal Network architecture and its various components
This book focuses on networking and security aspects of Personal
Networks (PNs). Given a single user, the authors propose an
architecture for PNs in which devices are divided into one of two
types of nodes: personal nodes and foreign nodes. Furthermore, the
authors demonstrate the ways in which PNs can be formed in a
self-organized and secure way, how they can be interconnected using
infrastructure networks, how multiple PNs can be connected, and how
their services and resources can be shared. In addition, the book
shows how security and ease-of-use can be achieved through
automatic configuration and how mobility can be supported through
adaptability and self-organization. The motivations for the PN
concept, the PN architecture, its functionalities and features, as
well as future challenges are covered in depth. Finally, the
authors consider the potential applications for PNs and briefly
discuss additional support systems for PN applications. The latter
includes service discovery and context information management among
others.
Key Features:
* Describes the PN network architecture and its various
components in-depth
* Written by experts who developed this concept
* Discusses the newer topic of federations of PNs
* Considers potential PN applications, and demonstrates how
applications support systems, such as service discovery and context
management, can assist the applications
* Provides an insight into the challenges of future personal
networking, architectures for PNs, potential and important
solutions, and their implications
This book will serve as an invaluable reference for researchers,
developers, and standardization experts in mobile and wireless
communication systems and services. It will also be of interest to
postgraduate students in the field of telecommunications.
Dr. Martin Jacobsson, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Martin Jacobsson graduated in Computer Science from University of Linköping, Sweden in 2002. In 2003, he joined the Wireless and Mobile Communications group led by professor Niemegeers in Delft University of Technology as a doctoral researcher. Currently, he holds a Post.Doc. research position at Delft University of Technology.
