Teleservices represent a diversity of applications related to various user and vendor cultures such as traditional telecommunication services, e-mail services, co-operative work applications, multimedia applications, mobile services and intelligent network services. The complexity and diversity of teleservices is constantly increasing. In addition, the way teleservices are designed, delivered and maintained is changing. The objective of this text is to capture the cultural and technical variety of teleservices. The following topics are covered: architectures for traditional and new teleservices; platform functionality and software; telecommunication infrastructure and fault-tolerant databases for real-time teleservice execution; and methodology, FDTs and languages. It contains the selected proceedings of the Sixth Conference on Information Network and Data Communication, held in Trondheim, Norway, 1996, and sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing. This book should be valuable reading for telecom software and hardware manufacturers, and educational researchers working in related areas.

Intelligence in networks is a concept, the meaning of which is highly related to the time-period when it is used. In the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, it was mainly related to the teleservice repertoire. In the 1990s, it is more related to efficient flexibility in the introduction of new teleservices and teleservice repertoire. This text sets out to identify and study issues related to solutions for increasing intelligence in networks. As examples, intelligence networks (IN), telecommunication information networking architecture (TINA) and mobile agents and active networks are different solutions for improving the grade of network intelligence. The areas under discussion include research and development within various closely related fields such as: teleservices, service architecture and service creation; middleware and specification languages; mobile agents, active networks, plug-and-play issues; and quality of service and performance."Intelligence in Networks" contains the proceedings of SMARTNET99, the fifth in a series of conferences on intelligence in networks sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), at the Asian Institute of Technology, Pathumthani, Thailand in November 1999.

Intelligence in Networks is a concept, the meaning of which is highly related to the time-period when it is used. In the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, it was mainly related to the teleservice repertoire `an sich'. In the 1990s, it is more related to efficient flexibility in the introduction of new teleservices and teleservice repertoire. This state-of-the-art text sets out to identify and study issues related to solutions for increasing intelligence in networks. As examples, intelligence networks (IN), telecommunication information networking architecture (TINA) and mobile agents and active networks are different solutions for improving the grade of network intelligence. The areas under discussion include research and development within various closely related fields such as: Teleservices, service architecture and service creation; Middleware and specification languages; Mobile agents, active networks, plug-and-play issues; and Quality of service and performance.£/LIST£ Intelligence in Networks contains the proceedings of SMARTNET'99, the fifth in a series of conferences on intelligence in networks sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), at the Asian Institute of Technology, Pathumthani, Thailand in November 1999.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the IFIP International Conference on Intelligence in Communication Systems, INTELLICOMM 2004, held in Bangkok, Thailand in November 2004.The 24 revised full papers presented together with 5 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on QoS and security, intelligent communication systems with NLP, QoS, location and context aware services, protocol and application architectures, adaptability architectures, and network and mobility management.
