New paradigms for communication/networking systems are needed in order to tackle such emerging issues as heterogeneity, complexity and management of evolvable infrastructures, thus requiring approaches that are both task- and knowledge-driven. The networking and seamless integration of concepts, technologies and devices in a dynamically changing...

This undergraduate textbook is written for a junior/senior level course on linear optimization. Unlike other texts, the treatment follows the "modified Moore method" approach in which examples and proof opportunities are worked into the text in order to encourage students to develop some of the content through their own experiments and...
