Review Teletraffic Engineering in a Competitive World (Teletraffic Science and Engineering) / Elsevier Science:

The International Teletraffic Congress (ITC) has since its inception in 1955 focused on the application of theoretical and simulation models to the design and performance analysis of communication networks. This tradition was continued which created a forum for discussion of current research, to disseminate information about "best practice", and to encourage cross-fertilization between different technical and technology specialists. Over the last few conferences there has been a gradual re-focusing of interest, with two revolutionary changes in the sector acting as catalysts. These are rapid technical transformations and an increasingly competitive market. These changes were reflected by deliberately encouraging papers that consider new technologies, regulation, economics and pricing. The papers that appear in this volume have been refereed by International experts, and in addition were looked at individually by advocates on the National Technical Committee and again at the final Technical Programme meeting in London. The quality of submission was high, 16 plenary and 115 contributed papers that reflected the major themes were selected. These and invited papers focussed on the key areas of the Internet and Mobility, coupled with hot-topics sessions targeted at developing countries link together to form an exciting programme.

Review Fault-Tolerant Parallel and Distributed Systems / Springer:

The most important uses of computing in the future will be those related to the global `digital convergence' where all computing becomes digital and internetworked. This convergence will be propelled by new and advanced applications in storage, searching, retrieval and exchanging of information in a myriad of forms. All of these will place heavy demands on large parallel and distributed computer systems because these systems have high intrinsic failure rates. The challenge to the computer scientist is to build a system that is inexpensive, accessible and dependable. The chapters in this book provide insight into many of these issues and others that will challenge researchers and applications developers. Included among these topics are: Fault-tolerance in communication protocols for distributed systems including synchronous and asynchronous group communication. Methods and approaches for achieving fault-tolerance in distributed systems such as those used in networks of workstations (NOW), dependable cluster systems, and scalable coherent interfaces (SCI)-based local area multiprocessors (LAMP). General models and features of distributed safety-critical systems built from commercial off-the-shelf components as well as service dependability in telecomputing systems. Dependable parallel systems for real-time processing of video signals. Embedding in faulty multiprocessor systems, broadcasting, system-level testing techniques, on-line detection and recovery from intermittent and permanent faults, and more. [+]
Fault-Tolerant Parallel and Distributed Systems is a coherent and uniform collection of chapters with contributions by several of the leading experts working on fault-resilient applications. The numerous techniques and methods included will be of special interest to researchers, developers, and graduate students.
