EUNICE 2005: Networks and Applications Towards a Ubiquitously Connected World : IFIP International Workshop on Networked Applications, Colmenarejo, Madrid/Spain, 6-8 July, 2005

International Federation for Information Processing The IFIP series publishes state-of-the-art results in the sciences and technologies of information and communication. The scope of the series includes: foundations of computer science; software theory and practice; education; computer applications in technology; communication systems; systems modeling and optimization; information systems; computers and society; computer systems technology; security and protection in information processing systems; artificial intelligence; and human-computer interaction. Proceedings and post-proceedings of referred international conferences in computer science and interdisciplinary fields are featured. These results often precede journal publication and represent the most current research. The principal aim of the IFIP series is to encourage education and the dissemination and exchange of information about all aspects of computing.

The EUNICE network has been created to foster the mobility of students, faculty ~nembers and research scientists working in the field of information and com~llunication technologies and to promote educational and research cooperation between its member institutions. The prime means for implementing these goals is the annual Summer School organized by the member institutions. From its conception, the EUNICE Summer Schools were designed as unique events where the joint participation of PhD students and supervisors working in the field of information and communication technologies (ICT) is the key to create an event that goes far beyond a conventional international workshop. Furthermore, the Summer School is an open forum for the cooperation of the European member institutions and any other organisation interested European academiclresearch centre at all levels. This cooperation is paramount to successfully construct and participate in the European Higher Education Area, and especially, to achieve easy and effective exchange of research activities.

this Book Is A Collection Of Selected Proceedings From The Eunice Summer School Which Took Place In Colmenarejo In July Of 2005. The Book Explores The Theme Of Networked Applications In Depth. It Covers Topics Of Advanced Engineering Such As Ubiquitous Computing, Full Mobility And Real-time Multimedia, Into Real Services, Applications, Protocols And Networks.
