Active networking is an exciting new paradigm in digital networking
that has the potential to revolutionize the manner in which
communication takes place. It is an emerging technology, one in
which new ideas are constantly being formulated and new topics of
research are springing up even as this book is being written. This
technology is very likely to appeal to a broad spectrum of users
from academia and industry. Therefore, this book was written in a
way that enables all these groups to understand the impact of
active networking in their sphere of interest. Information services
managers, network administrators, and e-commerce developers would
like to know the potential benefits of the new technology to their
businesses, networks, and applications. The book introduces the
basic active networking paradigm and its potential impacts on the
future of information handling in general and on communications in
particular. This is useful for forward-looking businesses that wish
to actively participate in the development of active networks and
ensure a head start in the integration of the technology in their
future products, be they applications or networks. Areas in which
active networking is likely to make significant impact are
identified, and the reader is pointed to any related ongoing
research efforts in the area. The book also provides a deeper
insight into the active networking model for students and
researchers, who seek challenging topics that define or extend
frontiers of the technology. It describes basic components of the
model, explains some of the terms used by the active networking
community, and provides the reader with taxonomy of the research
being conducted at the time this book was written. Current efforts
are classified based on typical research areas such as mobility,
security, and management. The intent is to introduce the serious
reader to the background regarding some of the models adopted by
the community, to outline outstanding issues concerning active
networking, and to provide a snapshot of the fast-changing
landscape in active networking research. Management is a very
important issue in active networks because of its open nature. The
latter half of the book explains the architectural concepts of a
model for managing active networks and the motivation for a
reference model that addresses limitations of the current network
management framework by leveraging the powerful features of active
networking to develop an integrated framework. It also describes a
novel application enabled by active network technology called the
Active Virtual Network Management Prediction (AVNMP) algorithm.
AVNMP is a pro-active management system; in other words, it
provides the ability to solve a potential problem before it impacts
the system by modeling network devices within the network itself
and running that model ahead of real time.
