Networking and computation : technology, modeling and performance
Robertazzi, Thomas G.
Networking and computation : technology, modeling and performance - 2nd ed. - Cham : Springer, 2020 - xiii, 212 p. ; (some col.), ill., 28 cm
Includes bibliographical references and index.
This revised textbook, intended for use in undergraduate/graduate courses on computer networking, computer systems/architecture and performance evaluation, presents a host of new and revised content and ancillaries. This text presents a balanced approach between technology and mathematical modeling. It covers networking algorithms (routing, error codes, protocol verification, line codes, network coding and quantum encryption) and analysis (probability for networking with technological examples, queueing models, divisible load scheduling theory and Amdahl’s Law). There is also a tutorial chapter providing insights into machine learning for networking, the cutting edge of networking technology. This self-contained text progresses systematically and gives students numerous examples at the end of each chapter. Students in electrical engineering, computer engineering and computer science departments will benefit from this book as will engineers and computer scientists working in relevant fields. Maintains a balanced approach between technology and mathematical modeling Features new and revised content covering the latest advances in the field since the original publication Includes a host of classroom material for students and instructors. This useful volume adopts a balanced approach between technology and mathematical modeling in computer networks, covering such topics as switching elements and fabrics, Ethernet, and ALOHA design. Examples at the end of each chapter provide ample material for practice.
