Revolutionizing Education through Technology

Economic competition is global, focused, and unrelenting; there is no such thing as a “safe” job. Whatever it was that formed the basis of your state’s economy 50, 25, or even 10 years ago is now at risk; and whatever it is that is coming next is hard to see or define, let alone prepare for. This came home to me in the late 1990s when the bloom of the dot com bubble was beginning to fade…

IPv6 for Enterprise Networks

The success of most IT projects can be boiled down to how well they were planned, test- ed, and piloted.

The lessons learned from the lab directly translate into a more streamlined pilot. Eve…

IP for 3G—Networking Technologies for Mobile Communications

This book is about the convergence of the Internet - the 'IP' of our title - with mobile - the '3G', as in 'third generation mobile phones'.

In other words, in terms of the list above, the book is about the final bullet: about bringing the netw…

The Study of Violent Crime

As the plan to write this book began to develop, a few central points became immediately apparent.
