Preface
This volume is dedicated largely to the performance-oriented design of modern computer networks, both wired and wireless. It is the consequence of the Tutorial Session which was held on 12th October 2003, preceeding the IEEE Computer Society’s Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems, held in Orlando, Florida. In addition to the core tutorial presentations, which covered both advances in network quality of service (QoS) and in performance evaluation methodology, we felt that it would be useful to assemble a volume in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series which would also include specific application areas of performance modeling and measurements. Thus the current volume includes three parts: – a first part that specifically addresses performance and QoS of modern wired and wireless networks; – a second one that discusses current advances in performance modeling and simulation; and – a final part that addresses other specific applications of these methodologies. The network-oriented portion of the volume itself comprises three complementary topics: – a first group of chapters deals with novel designs and new issues related to broad-based network performance and QoS, without limitations concerning the connection technologies that are being used; – a second group addre
