ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The editors thank those who submitted to this special issue. There were a large number of submissions and the reviewers had to uphold high standards in order to meet the low acceptance rate. The editors also thank the reviewers who have given of their time to ensure a quality issue. Finally, we thank Dr. Murat Yuksel at RPI for his help in coordinating the review process. SFB would particularly like to thank his manager, Cathy Forth, for her kind support, encouragement, and promotion of Stephen's eclectic ideas within GE.

Additional information
Stephen F. Bush is a researcher in Active Networking and Algorithmic Communications Network Theory at the GE Global Research Center. Stephen explores novel concepts in complexity and algorithmic information theory for applications ranging from network management and wireless ad hoc networking to RNA sequence analyses and novel concepts in nanotechnology-based networking. Dr. Bush has been the Principal Investigator for many DARPA and Lockheed Martin sponsored research projects. Stephen coauthored a book on active network management, titled Active Networks and Active Network Management: A Proactive Management Framework, published by Kluwer Academic Publishers. Before joining GE Global Research, Stephen was a researcher at the Information and Telecommunications Technologies Center (ITTC) at the University of Kansas. He received his BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and MS in Computer Science from Cleveland State University.
Shivkumar Kalyanaraman is an Associate Professor at the Department of Electrical, Computer and Systems Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY. He received a B.Tech degree from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India in July 1993, followed by MS and PhD degrees at the Ohio State University in 1994 and 1997, respectively and an Executive MBA (EMBA) degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (2005). His research is in topics such as congestion control architectures, quality of service (QoS), last-mile community wireless and free-space optical networks, network management, multimedia networking, and performance analysis. He was selected by MIT's Technology Review Magazine in 1999 as one of the top 100 young innovators for the new millennium. He is an associate member of the IEEE and a member of ACM. He is on the editorial board of ACM/Springer Wireless Network Journal and was till recently an area editor of ACM Computer Communication Review (CCR).
