Wired/Wireless Internet Communications
by Yevgeni Koucheryavy Lefteris Mamatas Ibrahim Matta Aleksandr Ometov Panagiotis PapadimitriouWelcome to the 3rd International Conference on Wired/Wireless Internet C- munications (WWIC). After a successful start in Las Vegas and a selective c- ference in Germany, this year s WWIC demonstrated the event s maturity. The conference was supported by several sponsors, both international and local, and became the o?cial venue for COST Action 290. That said, WWIC has now been established as a top-quality conference to promote research on the convergence of wired and wireless networks. This year we received 117 submissions, which allowed us to organize an - citing program with excellent research results, but required more e?ort from the 54 members of the international Program Committee and the 51 additional reviewers. For each of the 117 submitted papers we asked three independent - viewers to provide their evaluation. Based on an online ballot phase and a TPC meeting organized in Colmar (France), we selected 34 high-quality papers for presentation at the conference. Thus, the acceptance rate for this year was 29%.

Wired Wonder Woof (AstroKids #3)
by Robert ElmerWELCOME TO 2175! Meet the Astrokids --Mir, Buzz, Miko, DeeBee, and Tag --five friends learning biblical truth through out-of-this-world adventures aboard space station CLEO-7. "Nyet, my jokes aren't always a hit. Still, who knew they'd land me in so much trouble? Especially when I was trying to be serious!" "Please understand, I felt guilty about spying on my friends. It all started with a Galaxian trader--and our dog, Zero-G. Sure, Zero-G can talk, thanks to the Mind-2-Voice collar DeeBee made him. But why was the Galaxian so interested in our space mutt? This guy had to be hiding something. But would the other AstroKids believe me?"
Wireless: Strategically Liberalizing the Telecommunications Market (Lea Telecommunications Ser.)
by Brian J.W. RegliThe revolution of wireless communications has only just begun to transform the telecommunications industry worldwide. This book offers insight into the possible options for corporate strategists and government policymakers as they look to harness the expansion of wireless communications to meet the goals of sustainable telecommunications development. Using a multidisciplinary approach which combines policy research, legal analysis, business economics, and models of sustainability from the environmental sciences, the book compares the development of wireless communications in four countries: the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia, and Brazil. The comparative analysis points to common themes and opportunities, including: * breaking down the barriers between wireless and wireline access by changing the regulatory design which constrains service providers; * targeting the development potential of wireless access through the utilization of new technologies and service models; and * using wireless access as the basis for full facilities-based competition in both developing and developed world markets. No other book today offers this broad a context for a discussion of wireless communications and its potential impact on the evolution of the telecommunications industry.
