Klappentext The focus of this volume is on the three building blocks out of which a communication network is constructed: multiplexing, switching, and routing. Written for both the workplace and the classroom, this book lays the foundation and provides the answers required for building an efficient, state-of-the-art network" one that can expand to meet growing demand and evolve to capitalize on coming technological advances. Zusammenfassung Covers fundamental concepts in detail and places design issues in context by drawing on real world examples from technologies in use. This book provides coverage of topics such as network calculus with deterministically-constrained traffic! congestion control for elastic traffic! packet switch queuing! switching architectures! and others.
