Preface

Wireless networks and services are vital elements of daily life around the world. Presently, there are close to 4.8 billion mobile subscribers and more than 8 billion mobile connections (including machine-to-machine) in the world, and the numbers are increasing at a very rapid pace. The revenue generated worldwide in 2015 for providing mobile services exceeded US$1 trillion. It is expected that by 2020, there will be more than 50 billion mobile connections; hence, there is a need to provide the required resources for this anticipated phenomenal growth. However, the resources (e.g., frequency spectrum, energy) are limited, which calls for innovative approaches to improving efficiencies, managing complexities, providing quality, and ensuring availability and security. It is of the utmost importance to meet the requirements of new services in a cost-effective and efficient manner; their proliferation depends on it. The conventional approach is to formulate resourc
