Information Science Reference Emerging Automation Techniques for the Future Internet

Automation techniques are meant to facilitate the delivery of flexible, agile, customized connectivity services regardless of the nature of the networking environment. New architectures combine advanced forwarding and routing schemes, mobility features, and customer-adapted resource facilities used for operation and delivery of services. Emerging Automation Techniques for the Future Internet is a collection of innovative research on the methods and applications of new architectures for the planning, dynamic delivery, and operation of services. While highlighting topics including policy enforcement, self-architectures, and automated networks, this book is ideally designed for engineers, IT consultants, professionals, researchers, academicians, and students seeking current research on techniques and structures used to enhance experience and services rendered. About the Author Christian JACQUENET graduated from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Physique de Marseille, a French school of engineers. He joined Orange in 1989, and he’s currently the Referent Expert of the “Networks of the Future” Orange Expert community. Until recently, he was the Director of the Strategic Program Office for advanced IP networking within Orange Labs. He is also the head of Orange’s IPv6 Program that aims at defining and driving the enforcement of the Group’s IPv6 strategy. He conducts development activities in the areas of Software-Defined Networking (SDN), IP networking, automated service delivery procedures, including service function chaining techniques.
