Bouras p. cm. ISBN 978-953-307-072-8 V Preface This book is the culmination of an effort to gather world-class scientists, engineers and educators engaged in the fields of telecommunications to meet and present their latest activities. Telecommunication is the assisted transmission of signals over a distance for the purpose of communication. Having drastically transformed the human way of living, telecommunications are considered the revolution of our times, and the catalyst for present and future technological and scientific developments. Being a very active research field, new advances in telecommunications are constantly changing the landscape and introduce new capabilities and enhanced ways of communication. Literature in the field is extensive and constantly enlarged. This book therefore intends to increase the dissemination level of the latest research advances and breakthroughs by making them available to a wide audience in a compact and friendly to the user way. It furthermore aims to provide a particularly good way for experts in one aspect of the field to learn about advances made by their colleagues with different research interests. The main focus of the book is the advances in telecommunications modeling, policy, and technology. In particular, several chapters of the book deal with low-level network layers and present issues in optical communication technology and optical networks, including the deployment of optical hardware devices and the design of optical network architecture. Wireless networking is also covered, with a focus on WiFi and WiMAX technologies. The book also contains chapters that deal with transport issues, and namely protocols and policies for efficient and guaranteed transmission characteristics while transferring demanding data applications such as video. Finally, the book includes chapters that focus on the delivery of applications through common telecommunication channels such as the earth atmosphere. This book is useful for researchers working in the telecommunications field, in order to read a compact gathering of some of the latest efforts in related areas. It is also useful for educators that wish to get an up-to-date glimpse of telecommunications research and present it in an easily understandable and concise way. It is finally suitable for the engineers and other interested people that would benefit from an overview of ideas, experiments, algorithms and techniques that are presented throughout the book. VI Bringing this book to the publication stage is the reward of the effort put by the editors, contributors and reviewers of all the presented chapters. We would therefore like to acknowledge the valuable contributions of all the authors of the chapters contained in this book, who decided to offer their insights and expertise in order to help assemble, in our opinion, a highly useful and quality book. We would also like to thank the publishing house, which supported this effort and helped make the result available to a wide audience all over the world. Patras, 17th March, 2010 Christos J.
