Wireless Internet and Mobile Computing

Beschreibung

Understanding the cornerstone of an efficient communications network Mobility is defining the future of computing, and in a resource-limited wireless environment, interoperability and performance present a major challenge that has baffled researchers and engineers for years. Now, Wireless Internet and Mobile Computing is the first book to tackle this issue with a thorough examination of how these distinctive technologies can work together, through various adaptation methods, to maintain an effective communications network. The authors' "bottom up" approach cuts through all protocol stacks in a communication system to describe how application needs affect the underlying physical layer and network layer designs, and explains how the various devices in a large networking system can communicate with each other. Divided into six parts, the book explores: * Essentials of Wireless Communications * Cellular Wireless Technologies * Short-Range Wireless Technologies * Protocol Adaptations for Wireless Networking * Wireless Resources Management * Mobile Computing Application Issues Throughout the book, practical, real-life case studies serve as motivating examples to help you gain an in-depth understanding of the technologies being discussed. Whether you're a student, researcher, or practitioner in the field, this is the only book that covers the scope and depth of this fundamental topic.
