Klappentext Network processors are the basic building blocks of today's high-speed, high-demand, quality-oriented communication networks. Designing and implementing network processors requires a new programming paradigm and an in-depth understanding of network processing requirements. This book leads the reader through the requirements and the underlying theory of networks, network processing, and network processors. It covers implementation of network processors and intergrates EZchip Microcode Development Environment so that you can gain hands-on experience in writing high-speed networking applications. By the end of the book, the reader will be able to write and test applications on a simulated network processor. Zusammenfassung Network processors are the basic building blocks of high-speed! high-demand! quality-oriented communication networks. This book leads readers through the requirements and the underlying theory of networks! network processing! and network processors.
