Dependable and adaptable networks and services : 13th Open European Summer School and IFIP TC6.6 workshop, EUNICE 2007, Enschede, the Netherlands, July 18-20, 2007 : proceedings

The main goal of the EUNICE Summer School is to give young researchers,and particularly PhD students, the opportunity to present their work at an inter- tional level. The EUNICE Summer School also seeks to o?er comprehensive and inspiring invited talks from experienced experts in the ?eld, providing a context for discussions on ongoing research and new challenges. The EUNICE Summer School is an initiative of the European University Network of Information and Communication Engineering, or EUNICE Network for short. Although the summer school events are organized by the member institutions taking turns, submission to and participation in the events are open to researchers outside the EUNICE Network. The 13th EUNICE Summer School returned to Enschede, The Netherlands, whereitwashostedearlierin2000.Backin2000,thethemeofthesummerschool was ‘Innovative Internet Applications.’ Much has changed since then: wireless network technologies have become a constantly growing part of the Internet infrastructure, and increasingly smaller and more powerful computing devices with ?exible connectivity open the possibility of new services and applications.

The 17 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on middleware and supportive services, context-awareness, voice over IP, user behavior, security and legal aspects, performance aspects, and novel architectures Making Networks And Services Dependable Is, Of Course, Extremely High On The Priority List Of Any Network Manager And That Makes This Book A Vital Tool In The Armory Of Any Researcher Or Professional In The Field. These Are Carefully Revised Texts Of Selected Lectures Given At The 13th Eunice Open European Summer School As Well As The Conjoint Ifip Workshop, Held In The Netherlands In July 2007. The Papers Are Organized In Topical Sections On Middleware And Supportive Services And Context-awareness, Among Other Topics. Middleware And Supportive Services -- Context-awareness -- Voice Over Ip -- User Behavior, Security And Legal Aspects -- Performance Aspects -- Novel Architectures.
