DESCRIPTION:
Bestselling author William Stallings presents comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of TCP performance design issues. A high-level overview of cutting-edge network and Intranet design, this book focuses on high-speed technologies like routing for multimedia, how to manage traffic flow, and compression techniques for maximizing throughout.
"A serious book!!" according to Jose Miguel Guzman. Fortunately, this is not the typical High Speed Newtworks book. Unlike most authors, Stallings goes as deep as required. Beginning with descriptions for ATM and high speed LANs, the book explain how to modelate and estimate the actual network performance, by using statistics models. (An overview of probability and stochastic processes is included).The mechanisms for improve the network performance (a. "Excellent, but not for beginners" according to Graybeard. This is an excellent under-the-hood book for grad students with a strong background in math (calculus, matrices, graphs, probability). It is not for the average undergraduate, nor the average networking specialist, nor the average telco employee. That being said, if you are in one of those three categories and can pick up a copy of this book cheaply here on Amazon.com (I just saw a used copy for 50 c. "Too much to pay, get a normal speed networking book" according to A Customer.

I am not an industry expert but ATM doesn't seem a viable long term technology. If other people think the same way, why does the bookdescribes it in a positive way ?? The rest of the book then goesmore into theory and normal networking concepts that you canlearn from a probably cheaper, "norm. , i am confused.

Among these are: next-generation Internet technology; high-speed (100 Mbps) and Gigabit Ethernet; TCP performance design issues; unicast and multicast routing; and compression. There is a web page (shore/ws/HsNetml) for the book. Also covers self-similar traffic with an explanation of the mathematics behind it for the first time in any book. Covering basic technology as well as new traffic control standards for the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) in WANs and LANs, this book presents a range of related topics. . An essential reference for any professional designing or maintaining high-speed computer networks. Surveys developments in high-speed networks to provide a solid grasp of technical design issues related to carrying large volumes of traffic with differing quality-of-service requirements at very high data rates.
