Description


As the Internet becomes larger and larger, and consequently more difficult to operate and to manage, telecommunication operators, manufacturers and companies require tools to perform those tasks. A large number of tools developed from various technical areas have been proposed, but these alone are not sufficient to handle a rapidly evolving and dynamic environment. This book presents and explains all the techniques which integrate a certain level of intelligence (through intelligent software agents for example) in order to represent knowledge, take appropriate decisions, communicate with other entities and achieve a self-managing network.
