When surrounded by the heterogeneous networks environment, mobile terminals are often expected to select an optimal network quickly from the detected alternatives to ensure the required or better quality of service. How to reduce the probability of ping-pong effect of the process as much as possible is one of the most prominent challenges. From the...

The host-to-host/content/service communication instead of the host-to-host communication offered by traditional Internet Protocol (IP) routing solutions has been demanded in the last few years. Nowadays, getting this type of communication directly at network level is an increasing demand in the framework of new networking scenarios, such as Interne...

Network management is challenging due to ever increasing complexity and dynamics of network interactions. While many changes in networks are normal, some changes are not. One of the daily tasks of network administrators is to identify and analyze these abnormal changes that are hard to find by traditional security mechanisms (IDS, firewall, anti-vi...

The cloud service providers, their services, its users, and the requests for these services are increasing exponentially day by day. Consequently, it has turned out to be extremely difficult for the user to search a service according to his customized quality of service requirements. Besides, conventional service discovery techniques using centrali...

When a large-scale natural disaster happens, the evolved node B (eNB) of the disaster area (DA) may be destroyed, and the core network (CN) may be congested with massive data traffic. A disaster-resilient communication system can help relief workers execute the rescue operation. In this paper, we propose a smart traffic offloading mechanism (STOM) ...
