by Tanja Zseby Reijo Savola Marco Pistore

The Second Future Internet Symposium washeld during September 1-3, 2009 in Berlin, Germany. FIS 2009 provided a forum for leading researchers and pr- titioners to meet and discuss the wide-ranging scienti?c and technical issues related to the design of a new Internet. This second edition of the symposium con?rmed the sentiment shared during the First Future Internet Symposium, held in Vienna in 2008: designing the Future Internet is a very exciting and challenging task, and a new research community needs to be built around it. With overa billionusers,today’s Internet is arguablythe most successful- man artifact ever created. The Internet’s physical infrastructure, software, and content now play an integral part of the lives of everyoneon the planet, whether they interact with it directly or not. Now nearing its ?fth decade, the Int- net has shown remarkable resilience and ?exibility in the face of ever-increasing numbers of users, data volume, and changing usage patterns, but faces growing challenges in meeting the needs of our knowledge society. Yet, Internet access moves increasingly from ?xed to mobile, the trend towards mobile usage is - deniable and predictions are that by 2014 about 2 billion users will access the Internet via mobile broadband services. This adds a new layer of complexity to the already immense challenges. Globally, many major initiatives are underway to address the need for more scienti?c research, physical infrastructure inve- ment, better education, and better utilization of the Internet. Japan, the USA andEuropeareinvestingheavilyin this area.

Der Mikroprozessor 6809

by Jörg Zschocke

Der MC6809 von Motorola wird von Kennern als "der Größte unter den Kleinen" be­ zeichnet. Obwohl er unter den 8-Bit-Prozessoren sicher zu den leistungsfähigsten gehört, blieb er relativ unbekannt. Das vorliegende Buch soll ein wenig dazu beitragen, diesen Zu­ stand zu ändern. Bei der Gestaltung des Textes stand die anwendungsorientierte Information im Mittel­ punkt. Dem Leser werden Problembeispiele in Form von Hardware-Entwürfen einschließ­ lich 'der notwendigen Software aufgezeigt, die die eigene Problemlösung erleichtern. Eine breite Stoffauswahl und systematischer Aufbau sollen das Buch auch zum Nachschlagen geeignet machen. Vor allem durch die ersten Kapitel ist das Buch zum Selbststudium für den Anfänger geeignet, gerade auch als Einführungslektüre im Hinblick auf den 68000 und den 68020. An dieser Stelle möchte ich mich ganz herzlich bei den Herren Dipl.-Ing. Safferthal von der Firma Dolch, Dietzenbach und Dipl.-Ing. Havel, Computer Graphics, München für ihre Mitarbeit am Buch bedanken. Ein Dankeschön auch an die Firma Motorola, München, speziell an Herrn Dipl.-Ing. Hilf, für die Bereitstellung von Informationen und illustra­ tionen. Besondere Anerkennung verdient der Verlag Vieweg für die vertrauensvolle Zusammen­ arbeit und die gute Ausstattung des Buches. Ich möchte auch nicht unerwähnt lassen, daß nur durch die vielfältige Unterstützung meiner Frau - vor allem was die Schreibarbeit betrifft - dieses Buch möglich wurde.

Mikrocomputer, Aufbau und Anwendungen: Arbeitsbuch zum µP 6800

by Jörg Zschocke

Seit der Erfindung des Transistors hat der Mikroprozessor die wesentlichste Umstellung in der Elektrotechnik und auf den ihr benachbarten Gebieten gebracht. Der Mikroprozessor ist das Ergebnis einer stetigen Entwicklung zu immer höherer Integrationsdichte. Wenige, aber sehr komplexe Bausteine bilden ein Mikroprozessorsystem, mit dessen Hilfe heute Aufgaben gelöst werden, für die früher eine Vielzahl verschiedener Bausteine nötig war. Mit der Verringerung des schaltungstechnischen Aufwandes ging eine Zunahme der Programmieraufgaben einher. Mit den entsprechenden Fachwörtern ausgedrückt: Die Problemlösung verlagerte sich von der Hardware zur Software. Diese noch andauernde Entwicklung hat zwei Folgen: Alle diejenigen, die sich bisher mit Hardware beschäftigten, müssen sich in die neue Technik einarbeiten. Für viele bedeutet es eine beträchtliche Umstellung, sich plötzlich mit Befehlen, Adressen, Programmen und ähnlichen Begriffen beschäftigen zu müssen. Das sehr weite Einsatzgebiet dieses neuen Bausteins bringt es ferner mit sich, daß Personen mit dieser neuen Technik konfrontiert werden, die vorher nicht oder nur in sehr geringem Umfang mit der Elektronik in Berührung gekommen sind. An beide ZieJgruppen wendet sich dieses Buch. Um den Mikroprozessor sinnvoll einsetzen zu können, genügt es nicht, ihn als "black box" zu betrachten. Struktur und Wirkungsweise von Mikroprozessoren werden daher in Kapitell an einem Modell erklärt. Kapitel 2 gibt eine Einführung in die Programmierung. Wichtige Begriffe und Arbeitsweisen auf dem Gebiet der Software werden beschrieben.

by Meredith Zozus

The Data Book: Collection and Management of Research Data is the first practical book written for researchers and research team members covering how to collect and manage data for research. The book covers basic types of data and fundamentals of how data grow, move and change over time. Focusing on pre-publication data collection and handling, the text illustrates use of these key concepts to match data collection and management methods to a particular study, in essence, making good decisions about data. The first section of the book defines data, introduces fundamental types of data that bear on methodology to collect and manage them, and covers data management planning and research reproducibility. The second section covers basic principles of and options for data collection and processing emphasizing error resistance and traceability. The third section focuses on managing the data collection and processing stages of research such that quality is consistent and ultimately capable of supporting conclusions drawn from data. The final section of the book covers principles of data security, sharing, and archival. This book will help graduate students and researchers systematically identify and implement appropriate data collection and handling methods.

Physical-Layer Security for Cooperative Relay Networks (Wireless Networks)

by Yulong Zou Jia Zhu

This book presents physical-layer security as a promising paradigm for achieving the information-theoretic secrecy required for wireless networks. It explains how wireless networks are extremely vulnerable to eavesdropping attacks and discusses a range of security techniques including information-theoretic security, artificial noise aided security, security-oriented beamforming, and diversity assisted security approaches. It also provides an overview of the cooperative relaying methods for wireless networks such as orthogonal relaying, non-orthogonal relaying, and relay selection.Chapters explore the relay-selection designs for improving wireless secrecy against eavesdropping in time-varying fading environments and a joint relay and jammer selection for wireless physical-layer security, where a relay is used to assist the transmission from the source to destination and a friendly jammer is employed to transmit an artificial noise for confusing the eavesdropper. Additionally, the security-reliability tradeoff (SRT) is mathematically characterized for wireless communications and two main relay-selection schemes, the single-relay and multi-relay selection, are devised for the wireless SRT improvement. In the single-relay selection, only the single best relay is chosen for assisting the wireless transmission, while the multi-relay selection invokes multiple relays for simultaneously forwarding the source transmission to the destination.Physical-Layer Security for Cooperative Relay Networks is designed for researchers and professionals working with networking or wireless security. Advanced-level students interested in networks, wireless, or privacy will also find this book a useful resource.

Secure Group Communications Over Data Networks

by Xukai Zou Byrav Ramamurthy Spyros S. Magliveras

The ubiquitous nature of the Internet is enabling a new generation of - pUcations to support collaborative work among geographically distant users. Security in such an environment is of utmost importance to safeguard the pri­ vacy of the communication and to ensure the integrity of the applications. 'Secure group communications' (SGC) refers to a scenario in which a group of participants can receive and send messages to group members, in a way that outsiders are unable to glean any information even when they are able to intercept the messages. SGC is becoming extremely important for researchers and practitioners because many applications that require SGC are now widely used, such as teleconferencing, tele-medicine, real-time information services, distributed interactive simulations, collaborative work, grid computing, and the deployment of VPN (Virtual Private Networks). Even though considerable research accomplishments have been achieved in SGC, few books exist on this very important topic. The purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive survey of principles and state-of-the-art techniques for secure group communications over data net­ works. The book is targeted towards practitioners, researchers and students in the fields of networking, security, and software applications development. The book consists of 7 chapters, which are listed and described as follows.
