Network Management in Wired and Wireless Networks addresses various open issues related to performance monitoring, performance management, and performance control. It covers the performance management aspects of broadband wired and wireless cellular networks in an integrated fashion, and highlights the role of performance management in assisting network control procedures to achieve the end objectives of high return on investment for the service provider and an acceptable QoS for the end user.
Highlights include:
- Details of performance monitoring in broadband wired and wireless cellular networks, identifying various parameters that characterize network performance;
- The role of signaling networks in determining network performance, especially of GSM/GPRS cellular networks;
- Methods of performance optimization in broadband wired and wireless cellular networks;
- The role of management systems in network control at the packet, call, and network levels;
- Application of a monitoring system in facilitating congestion control of ATM/B-ISDN network; and
- Schemes of bandwidth allocation to optimize throughput and QoS.

Tejinder S. Randhawa has worked in the high-tech industry for over 25 years. At Mobile NewMedia Ltd., he is currently leading the research and development of a secure and reliable unified communications and monitoring platform for health care. The platform supports plug-and-play of wireless sensors and dash-boarding of vitals on mobile and embedded platforms; and can also be deployed in environments where no fixed communications infrastructure exists by utilizing WiFi Mesh. Prior to this, he worked with Dyaptive Systems (now JDS Uniphase) on the analysis of Testing Requirements for CDMA2000 cellular data applications and development of data traffic generators for testing such networks. Before joining Dyaptive Systems, he worked with CRC (Communication Research Center), Ottawa on the security aspects of mobile ad hoc networks.Tejinder has a PhD in Engineering Science from Simon Fraser University where he also held appointments as an Adjunct Professor for several years between 2002 and 2017. He has been a faculty member at BCIT since 1995. He has developed and taught graduate- and senior undergraduate-level courses in wireless network protocols, data network protocols, software engineering, wireless and mobile applications, database systems, client server computing and distributed systems.
His R&D activities have covered technical areas of Health Monitoring, Health Information Systems, sensor systems/networks, Wireless Networks, Internet Protocols, Voice Over IP, Multimedia Communication, Network Security, Mobile Applications, Software Engineering and operations research. His work has been published in peer-reviewed technical papers as well as US and Canadian patents that he has co-authored.
