This book investigates the coordinated power management of multi-tenant data centers that account for a large portion of the data center industry. The authors include discussion of their quick growth and their electricity consumption, which has huge economic and environmental impacts. This book covers the various coordinated management solutions in the existing literature focusing on efficiency, sustainability, and demand response aspects. First, the authors provide a background on the multi-tenant data center covering the stake holders, components, power infrastructure, and energy usage. Then, each power management mechanism is described in terms of motivation, problem formulation, challenges and solution.

Recently machine learning schemes have attained significant attention as key enablers for next-generation wireless systems. Currently, wireless systems are mostly using machine learning schemes that are based on centralizing the training and inference processes by migrating the end-devices data to a third party centralized location. However, these schemes lead to end-devices privacy leakage. To address these issues, one can use a distributed machine learning at network edge. In this context, federated learning (FL) is one of most important distributed learning algorithm, allowing devices to train a shared machine learning model while keeping data locally. However, applying FL in wireless networks and optimizing the performance involves a range of research topics. For example, in FL, training machine learning models require communication between wireless devices and edge servers via wireless links. Therefore, wireless impairments such as uncertainties among wireless channel states, interference, and noise significantly affect the performance of FL. On the other hand, federated-reinforcement learning leverages distributed computation power and data to solve complex optimization problems that arise in various use cases, such as interference alignment, resource management, clustering, and network control. Traditionally, FL makes the assumption that edge devices will unconditionally participate in the tasks when invited, which is not practical in reality due to the cost of model training. As such, building incentive mechanisms is indispensable for FL networks. This book provides a comprehensive overview of FL for wireless networks. It is divided into three main parts: The first part briefly discusses the fundamentals of FL for wireless networks, while the second part comprehensively examines the design and analysis of wireless FL, covering resource optimization, incentive mechanism, security and privacy. It also presents several solutions based on optimization theory, graph theory, and game theory to optimize the performance of federated learning in wireless networks. Lastly, the third part describes several applications of FL in wireless networks.

We are delighted to present the proceedings of the 12th Asia-Paci?c Network Operations and Management Symposium (APNOMS 2009), which was held in Jeju, Korea, during September 23-25, 2009. Recently, various convergences in wired and wireless networks, and conv- gence of telecommunications and broadcastings, are taking place for ubiquitous multimedia service provisioning. For example, broadband IP/MPLS wired n- works are actively converged with IEEE 802.11e wireless LAN, IEEE 802.16 Wireless MAN, 3G/4G wireless cellular networks, and direct multimedia bro- cast (DMB) networks. For e?cient support of service provisioning for ubiq- tous multimedia services on the broadband convergencenetworks, well-designed and implemented network operations and management functions with Q- guaranteed tra?c engineering are essential. The converged network will open the way for a new world with emerging new businesses and computing services. The Organizing Committee (OC) selected "Management Enabling the Future Internet for Changing Business and New Computing Services" as the timely theme of APNOMS 2009. Contributions from academia, industry and research institutions met these challengeswith173papersubmissions,fromwhich41high-qualitypapers(23.7% of the submissions) were selected for technical sessions as full papers, and 32 papers were selected as short papers. In addition, we had nine papers in - novation sessions for on-going research. Diverse topics were covered, including Tra?c Trace Engineering, Con?guration and Fault Management, Management of IP-Based Networks, Autonomous and Distributed Control, Sensor Network and P2P Management, Converged Networks and Tra?c Engineering, SLA and QoS Management, Active and Security Management, Wireless and Mobile N- work Management, and Security Management.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th Asia-Pacific Network Operations and Management Symposium, APNOMS 2007, held in Sapporo, Japan, October 10-12, 2007.

The 48 revised full papers and 30 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 161 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Management of Distributed Networks, Network Configuration and Planning, Network Security Management, Sensor and Ad-hoc Networks, Network Monitoring, Routing and Traffic Engineering, Management of Wireless Networks and Security on Wireless Networks.
