It isour greatpleasureto welcomeyouto the
SecondInternationalWorkshopon Future Multimedia Networking (FMN).
Following the ?rst successful workshop (held in Cardi?, Wales) in
2008, this year's workshop continues the tradition of being a
premier forum that gives researchers and practitioners a unique -
portunity to share their experiences and discuss state-of-the-art
research results and major recent accomplishments in the area of
multimedia networking. In recent years, real-time multimedia
services have contributed extensively to our life experience and
are expected to be among the most important applications in the
future Internet. The management of content distribution services
and the e?cient deliveryof real-timemultimedia
servicesoverdiverseand heterogeneous wired and wireless systems
remain a signi?cant challenge for future multimedia networking
systems. This year's workshop focused on various aspects of mul-
media systems, content networking, and autonomous communication. A
speci?c emphasis was placed on upcoming autonomic content networks
and technologies that contribute to their development. The call for
papers attracted 64 submissions from 32 countries for the main
workshop. The Program Committee accepted 16 papers (an acceptance
rate of 25%) that cover a range of topics, including wireless and
ad-hoc networks in autonomic content networking, streaming and
voice services, group and mul- party services, and quality in video
and Internet services. This year we also had a Demonstration
Session on Future Multimedia Networking for which 12 papers
wereacceptedoutofsubmissionsreceivedfromover15countries.
Itisoursincere hope that the proceedings of this workshop will
serve as a valuable reference for multimedia researchers and
developers.
The energy efficiency paradigm associated with Wireless Sensor
Networks (WSNs) and the Internet of Things (IoT) is a major
bottleneck for the development of related technologies. To overcome
this limitation, the design and development of efficient and
high-performance energy harvesting systems for WSN and IoT
environments are being explored. This edited book comprehensively
covers energy harvesting sources and techniques that can be used
for WSN and IoT systems. The authors cover energy harvesting,
energy management and energy prediction models to maximize the
energy harvested. They also identify major architecture advances to
develop cost-effective, efficient, and reliable energy harvesting
systems. This is a useful reference for researchers, engineers,
practitioners, designers, and R&D staff involved in the
development of energy harvesting models, architectures and
technologies for practical deployments in WSN and IoT environments.
The book will be of interest to professionals involved in
developing energy harvesting systems, industry practitioners, and
manufacturers in IoT, sensing, and energy harvesting technologies.
Finally, it will also be a useful reference for graduate, PhD and
postdoctoral students following courses in WSNs, IoT and energy
harvesting technologies.
This is a book written by leading experts in the fields of
cyber-physical systems (CPS) and wireless sensor networks (WSN).
This book describes how wireless sensor networking technologies can
help in establishing and maintaining seamless communications
between the physical and cyber systems to enable efficient, secure,
reliable acquisition, management, and routing of data. Topics
covered include: an introduction to WSN and CPS; integration issues
and challenges between WSN and CPS; enabling CPS design
architectures with WSN technologies; cyber security in CPS; data
management in CPS with WSN; routing in WSN for CPS; resource
management in CPS; mobile sensors in CPS; intelligent WSN in CPS;
resilient WSN for CPS; case studies of integrated WSN and CPS; and
medical CPS. All chapters of the book have been rigorously
peer-reviewed. Cyber-Physical System Design with Sensor Networking
Technologies is essential reading for researchers, advanced
students and developers working in the areas of cyber-physical
systems and sensor networks.
