Product Description
Technologies for Home Networking focuses on the latesttechnologies for speedier, more reliable wireless networking andexplains how to facilitate workable end-to-end solutions from a user’sperspective. With a balanced mix of practice and theory, this bookbridges the gap between wireless networking and service researchcommunities, which, until now, have confined their work to theirrespective fields.
From the Back Cover
A broad overview of the home networking field, ranging from wireless technologies to practical applications
In the future, it is expected that private networks (e.g., homenetworks) will become part of the global network ecosystem,participating in sharing their own content, running IP-based services,and possibly becoming service providers themselves. This is alreadyhappening in the so-called “social networks” and peer-to-peer filesharing networks on the Internet—making this emerging topic one of themost active research areas in the wireless communications field.
This book bridges the gap between wireless networking and serviceresearch communities, which, until now, have confined their work totheir respective fields. Here, a number of industry professionals andacademic experts have contributed chapters on various aspects of thesubject to present an overview of home networking technologies with aspecial emphasis on the user as the center of all activities. Coverageincludes:
Networked home use cases and scenariosMedia format, media exchange, and media interoperabilityLocation-aware device and service discoverySecurity in smart homesSecure service discovery protocol implementation for wireless ad-hoc networksMultimedia content protection in consumer networksMobile device connectivity in home networksUnlicensed mobile access/generic access networkWireless sensor networks in the homeUltra-wideband and sensor networking in the home environmentWith a balanced mix of practice and theory, Technologies for HomeNetworking focuses on the latest technologies for speedier, morereliable wireless networking and explains how to facilitate workableend-to-end solutions from a user’s perspective. This book is an idealresource for practicing engineers, designers, and managers with aninterest in home networking and also serves as a valuable text forgraduate students.
