Preface
This volume is the result of the 4th International ICST Conference on Mobile
NetworksandManagement(MONAMI), whichwas held inHamburg,Germany
during September 23–26, 2012, hosted by the Institute of Communication Net-
works (ComNets) at Hamburg University of Technology.
TheMONAMIconferenceseriesaimsatclosingthegapbetweenhithertocon-
sidered separate and isolated research areas, namely, multi-access and resource
management, mobility and network management, and network virtualization.
Although these have emerged as core aspects in the design, deployment, and
operation of current and future networks, there is still little to no interaction
betweenthe experts in these fields.MONAMI enables cross-pollinationbetween
these areas by bringing together top researchers, academics, and practitioners
specializing in the area of mobile network and service management.
This year, after a thorough peer review process, 15 papers were selected for
inclusion in the main track of the technical program. In addition, MONAMI
2012 hosted two well-received workshops: the Second MONAMI Workshop on
Smart Objects and the First Open Connectivity Services Workshop, organized
in cooperation with the EU FP7 SAIL project. All in all, 25 papers were orally
presented at the conference. Thirty-four Technical Program Committee (TPC)
members made sure that each submitted paper was reviewed by at least three
researchers with relevant expertise, including at least one TPC member.
Theconferenceopenedwithahalf-daytutorialon“OperatingHeterogeneous
Wireless Networks with SON (Self-Organizing Networks),” a key and emerging
topic in modern mobile communications, presented by Henning Sanneck and
Andreas Lobinger of Nokia Siemens Networks. John Strassner, CTO Software
R&DLaboratoryofHuawei,USA,openedtheseconddaywithaspecialtutorial
on “Semantic Middleware for Orchestrating Behavior.” This year’s conference
featuredthreekeynotes:SvenvanderMeer(Ericsson)gavehisviewonheteroge-
neousnetworksandbigdataduringhistalkentitled“HetNets,BigData,Cloud,
SDN...AllProblemsSolvedandYourLunchServed,Right?”JoelJ.FleckII(HP
Labs) talked about cloud computing in his keynote “Slipping the Surly Bonds
of Earth – Challenges of Dynamic Cloud Computing.” Finally, Sajal K. Das
(University of Texas at Arlington) complemented the Smart Objects workshop
withhistalk“ModelsforServiceDiscoveryandResourceManagementinSmart
Environments.”Lastbutnotleast,thisyear’sconferencefeaturedawhiteboard-
ing session (chaired by John Strassner) on “New Ideas in Computing.” For full
details on this year’s program, visit www.mon-ami.org.
This volume includes the revised versions of all papers presented at MON-
AMI 2012 in a single-track format, organized thematically in five parts as fol-
lows; Mobile Networks in Part I; Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets) aspects
are discussed in Part II; Part III presents new approaches related to Wireless
VI Preface
Communications; Part IV addresses Smart Objects and IoT Applications; and,
Part V includes papers presenting forward-thinking solutions for Future Net-
works, embracing virtualization, security, and coding techniques.

it an excellent venue for presenting novel research work as well as for fostering

hosted by Cork Institute of Technology in September 2013.
We closethisprefacebyacknowledgingthe vitalrolethatthe TPCmembers
and additional referees played during the review process. Their efforts ensured

Technology for hosting MONAMI 2012. The team that put together this year’s

many to recognize here by name, their effort shouldbe highlighted. We particu-
larly thank Elisa Mendini for her administrative support on behalf of EAI, and
