This book provides a comprehensive view of the methods and approaches for performance evaluation of computer networks. It offers a clear and logical introduction to the topic, covering both fundamental concepts and practical aspects. It enables the reader to answer a series of questions regarding performance evaluation in modern computer networking scenarios, such as ‘What, where, and when to measure?’, ‘Which time scale is more appropriate for a particular measurement and analysis?’, 'Experimentation, simulation or emulation? Why?’, and ‘How do I best design a sound performance evaluation plan?’. The book includes concrete examples and applications in the important aspects of experimentation, simulation and emulation, and analytical modeling, with strong support from the scientific literature. It enables the identification of common shortcomings and highlights where students, researchers, and engineers should focus to conduct sound performance evaluation. This book is a useful guide to advanced undergraduates and graduate students, network engineers, and researchers who plan and design proper performance evaluation of computer networks and services. Previous knowledge of computer networks concepts, mechanisms, and protocols is assumed. Although the book provides a quick review on applied statistics in computer networking, familiarity with basic statistics is an asset. It is suitable for advanced courses on computer networking as well as for more specific courses as a secondary textbook.

This book presents how federated learning helps to understand and learn from user activity in Internet of Things (IoT) applications while protecting user privacy. The authors first show how federated learning provides a unique way to build personalized models using data without intruding on users’ privacy. The authors then provide a comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art research on federated learning, giving the reader a general overview of the field. The book also investigates how a personalized federated learning framework is needed in cloud-edge architecture as well as in wireless-edge architecture for intelligent IoT applications. To cope with the heterogeneity issues in IoT environments, the book investigates emerging personalized federated learning methods that are able to mitigate the negative effects caused by heterogeneities in different aspects. The book provides case studies of IoT based human activity recognition to demonstrate the effectiveness of personalized federated learning for intelligent IoT applications, as well as multiple controller design and system analysis tools including model predictive control, linear matrix inequalities, optimal control, etc. This unique and complete co-design framework will benefit researchers, graduate students and engineers in the fields of control theory and engineering.
