This book provides a complete and comprehensive overview of 3G UMTS charging services Evolving from offline billing of traditional telecommunications, charging for IP services in mobile networks is challenging; charging convergence is one of the major trends in the telecom industry. Advanced mobile telecommunications incorporates data applications with real-time control and management, and requires a convergent and flexible online charging system. Such convergence is essential to mitigate fraud and credit risks in order to provide more personalized information to users about charges and credit limit controls.Charging for Mobile All-IP Telecommunications provides comprehensive and practical coverage of online and offline charging based on mobile operator experiences, and the latest efforts undertaken by the UMTS specifications.Key features: Presents a complete overview of the telecommunications charging system, including the evolution from 2G to 3G and all-IP network charging frameworksDiscusses all management aspects related to charging and billing processes, with a focus on the major trends and developments within the telecoms industryProvides an overview of the telecom networks such as PSTN, GSM, UMTS and IMSCovers the concepts of the telecom charging on mobile services and the new technologies for implementing online charging system, such as GTP’ and Diameter protocolContains coverage on network nodes and data flows in relation to charging of mobile applications, such as IMS call and content downloadingExplains the IP-based online charging system, protocol details and recent trends in charging for mobile telecom industryThis book is an invaluable resource for graduate students, telecoms and IP engineers, network service providers and system architects. Information technologists and networking equipment manufacturers will also find this book insightful.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on IoT as a service, IoTaaS 2017, held in Taichung, Taiwan, in September 2017. The 46 full papers were carefully selected from 65 submissions. The papers deal with the “Everything as a Service” deployment paradigm which enables the easy adoption of IoT based services and applications by end-users, and forces providers of smart objects and middleware platforms to architect their solutions accordingly. The three special sessions organized were Wearable Technology and Applications (WTAA), Building Smart Machine Applications (BSMA), and Security and Privacy in Internet of Things, Services and People (SP-IoTSP). The WTAA special session aimed to address the challenges of maintaining high efficiency of WTAA in terms of high recognition rate, energy consumption, computational costs and so forth. The BSMA special session aimed to explore how to construct smart machines architecture for the industryunder the background of IoT and big data. The SP-IoTSP special session aimed to investigate recent research and future directions for IoTSP security and privacy.
