Modeling and Simulation Tools for Emerging Telecommunication Networks

Modeling and Simulation Tools for Emerging Telecommunication Networks contains over 20 articles by well-known scientists and engineers reflecting the advances in modeling and simulation for telecommunications in the last five years. Their research covers a broad spectrum of topics including., analytic and hybrid cores for quick solutions of network design performance evaluation problems., multimedia traffic behavior in different time scales., improvement of the quality of the statistical analysis tools imbedded in simulation products., combining source and lower-layer models into two-layer or three-layer traffic models., mobile and satellite communcations propagation models and wide-band optical networks propagation models., verification and validation problems, rare-event simulation and accelerated simulation methods.

The book covers four primary topics: multilayer traffic and multimedia traffic behavior., quality of simulations., accelerated simulation methods., and verification, validation and credibility of simulations and will be an essential reference for practicing engineers and academic researchers.
