For many civilian, security, and military applications, distributed and networked coordination is a more promising alternative to centralized command and control, with systems that are more scalable, flexible, and robust. This book explores research in distributed network intelligence and security, including novel applications. It presents trends and advances and helps you understand how to successfully incorporate them into distributed intelligent systems and services. Featuring contributions by international scholars and experts, this collection offers insights for further research and development in distributed computing and networking.
