Description & Coverage
Description:

In the midst of the current computing revolution, users demand ever-enhanced and reliable content delivery networks (CDNs) as a means to access the latest online video, news article, music, and or other information. These delivery networks have the potential to improve users' experiences and decrease network response time, while also allowing content providers to invest in a shared infrastructure at reduced cost.

Next Generation Content Delivery Infrastructures delivers state-of-the-art research on current and future Internet-based content delivery networking topics, bringing to the forefront novel problems that demand investigation. This book opens up new perspectives in Internet technologies, raising new issues in the architecture, design, and implementation of existing CDNs.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Cloud-based Content Networks
  • Content delivery and management on the VANET, Manet and Internet
  • Content Delivery Networks (CDNS)
  • Content Production and Content Outsourcing
  • Grid and High Performancing Computing
  • GRID-based Content Delivery
  • P2P streaming content delivery infrastructures
  • Performance monitoring for CDN applications
  • Quality of Service (QoS)
  • Wireless Networks
