Cognitive networks can dynamically adapt their operational
parameters in response to user needs or changing environmental
conditions. They can learn from these adaptations and exploit
knowledge to make future decisions.

Cognitive networks are the future, and they are needed simply
because they enable users to focus on things other than configuring
and managing networks. Without cognitive networks, the pervasive
computing vision calls for every consumer to be a network
technician. The applications of cognitive networks enable the
vision of pervasive computing, seamless mobility, ad-hoc networks,
and dynamic spectrum allocation, among others.

In detail, the authors describe the main features of cognitive
networks clearly indicating that cognitive network design can be
applied to any type of network, being fixed or wireless. They
explain why cognitive networks promise better protection against
security attacks and network intruders and how such networks will
benefit the service operator as well as the consumer.

Cognitive Networks

* Explores the state-of-the-art in cognitive networks, compiling
a roadmap to future research.

* Covers the topic of cognitive radio including semantic
aspects.

* Presents hot topics such as biologically-inspired networking,
autonomic networking, and adaptive networking.

* Introduces the applications of machine learning and distributed
reasoning to cognitive networks.

* Addresses cross-layer design and optimization.

* Discusses security and intrusion detection in cognitive
networks.

Cognitive Networks is essential reading for advanced
students, researchers, as well as practitioners interested in
cognitive & wireless networks, pervasive computing, distributed
learning, seamless mobility, and self-governed networks.

With forewords by Joseph Mitola III as well as Sudhir Dixit.
