This volume presents the proceedings of the 6th International ICST Conference on Heterogeneous Networking for Quality, Reliability, Security and Robustness and of the Third International ICST Workshop on Advanced Architectures and Algorithms for Internet DElivery and Applications. Both events were held in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in November 2009. To each of these events is devoted a specific part of the volume. The first part is dedicated to the proceedings of ICST QShine 2009. The first four chapters deal with new issues concerning the quality of service in IP-based telephony and multimedia. A second set of four chapters addresses some important research problems in mul- hop wireless networks, with a special emphasis on the problems of routing. The following three papers deal with recent advances in the field of data mana- ment and area coverage in sensor networks, while a fourth set of chapters deals with mobility and context-aware services. The fifth set of chapters contains new works in the area of Internet delivery and switching systems. The following chapters of the QShine part of the volume are devoted to papers in the areas of resource management in wireless networks, overlay, P2P and SOA arc- tectures. Some works also deal with the optimization of quality of service and energy consumption in WLAN and sensor networks and on the design of a mobility support in mesh networks.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of the 7th International ICST Conference on Broadband Communications, Networks and Systems (BROADNETS 2010) held in October 2010 in Athens, Greece. The 39 revised full papers were carefully selected from numerous submissions. The conference was divided in 3 tracks: Optical, Wireless and Internet. The optical track covers topics such as optical switch architectures, reliable optical networking, routing, wavelength assignment, and traffic grooming, network control and management. The wireless track highlights MIMO and OFDM techniques, mobility management, routing protocols, hybrid networks and the internet track covers routing, scheduling, security, trust, semantic technologies and social networks.
