The current book provides a final report of activity performed by the COST 290 Action, ''Traffic and QoS Management in Wireless Multimedia Networks,'' which ran from March 10, 2004, until June 3, 2008. After an introduction to the COST framework and the Action's survey time-frame and activities, the main part of the book addresses a number of technical issues, which are structured into several chapters. All those issues have been carefully investigated by the COST 290 community during the course of the project-the information presented in this book can be regarded as ultimate for each particular topic; every open research issue addressed in the book is described carefully, corresponding existing studies are analyzed and results achieved by the COST 290 community are presented and compared, and further research directions are defined and analyzed. Because the book covers a wide area of research addressing issues of modern wired and wireless networking at different layers, starting from the physical layer up to the application layer, it can be recommended to be used by researchers and students to obtain a comprehensive analysis on particular research topics including related areas, to obtain broad and ultimate referencing, and to be advised on current open issues. COST 290 is one of the Actions of the European COST Program. Founded in 1971, COST is an intergovernmental framework for European Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research, allowing the coordination of nationally funded research on a European level. COST Actions cover basic and precompetitive research as well as activities of public utility. The goal of COST is to ensure that Europe holds a strong position in the field of scientific and technical research for peaceful purposes by increasing European cooperation and interaction in this field. COST has clearly shown its strength in noncompetitive research, in prenormative cooperation, and in solving environmental and cross-border problems and problems of public utility. It has been successfully used to maximize European synergy and to add value in research cooperation, and it is a useful tool to further European integration, in particular concerning Central and Eastern European countries. Ease of access for institutions from nonmember countries also makes COST a very interesting and successful tool for tackling topics of a truly global nature. To emphasize v that the initiative came from the scientists and technical experts themselves and from those with a direct interest in furthering international collaboration, the founding fathers of COST opted for a flexible and pragmatic approach. COST activities have in the past paved the way for European Community activities, and their flexibility allows COST Actions to be used as a testing and exploratory field for emerging topics. The member countries participate on an ''a`la carte'' principle, and activities are launched with a ''bottom-up'' approach. One of the main features of COST Actions are their built-in flexibility. This concept clearly...
