Klappentext Da moderne Kommunikationsnetze immer größere Datenmengen bewältigen müssen, kommt der Entwicklung von Hochgeschwindigkeitsnetzen eine zentrale Bedeutung zu. "Broadband Packet Switching Technologies" behandelt systematisch alle wichtigen Paketvermittlungsarchitekturen (Packet Switching) und beschreibt dabei sowohl theoretische als auch praktische Aspekte sehr detailliert. Die Autoren, Fachleute aus Industrie und akademischer Forschung, wenden sich mit diesem Lehrbuch an fortgeschrittene Studenten und Ingenieure, die Hochgeschwindigkeitsnetze entwerfen oder administrieren. Fallstudien aus der drahtlosen und der faseroptischen Kommunikation lassen den Stoff lebendig werden. Zusammenfassung The effective design of high-speed, reliable switching systems is essential for moving the huge volumes of traffic and multimedia over modern communications networks. This book explains all the main packet-switching architectures, including all theoretical and practical topics relevant to the design and management of high-speed networks.
