Editorial Reviews

Papers are presented from an April 2002 conference on developments in networking, considering trends in the Internet and in mobile communications and covering platform software, services, and protocols. Papers on platform software address various aspects of software infrastructure in networks including object-orientation, components, agents, and plug-and-play. Material on services looks at interactive TV, group communication, and location awareness. The session on protocols discusses bandwidth brokers, authentication, and protocol testing. Specific topics include virtual private components, an MLS location-based service pilot system, and design of a minimal signaling based bandwidth brokering protocol. Annotation c.
