Product Description
The world’s leading introduction to networking-fully updated for tomorrow’s key technologies.
Computer Networks, Fourth Printing is the best introduction to today’s networks-and tomorrow’s. This classical best peddler has been thoroughly updated to mirror the newest and most important networking technologies with a special emphasis on wireless networking, including 802.11, Bluetooth, broadband wireless, ad hoc networks, i-mode, and WAP. Only fixed networks enjoy not been ignored any with coverage of ADSL, gigabit Ethernet, peer-to-peer networks, NAT, and MPLS. And there is lots of new material on applications, including over 60 pages on the Object, plus Internet radio, voice over IP, and video against demand.Finally, the coverage of network security has been revised and distended to fill an entire chapter.
Author, educator, and researcher Andrew S. Tanenbaum, victor of the ACM Karl V. Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award, carefully explains how networks activity on the inside, from underlying hardware halogen the physical layer up through the top-level application layer. Tanenbaum covers all this and more:
- Physical layer (e.g., copper, fiber, wireless, satellites, and Internet over cable)
- Facts link seam (e.g., rule principles, protocol verification, HDLC, and PPP)
- MACINTOSH Sublayer (e.g., gigabit Ethernet, 802.11, broadband wireless, and switching)
- Network layer (e.g., routing algorithms, congestion control, QoS, IPv4, and IPv6)
- Transport layer (e.g., socket programming, UDP, TCP, RTP, and scheme performance)
- Application band (e.g., e-mail, the internet , PHP, wireless Net, MP3, and streaming audio)
- Network security (e.g., AES, RSA, quantum cryptography, IPsec, and Web security)
The book gives detailed descriptions of the principles associated with each layer and presents many examples drawn from the Internet and wireless networks.
Product DescriptionThe world’s leading introduction to networking-fully updated for tomorrow’s important technologies.
Computer Networks, Fourth Edition is the ideal introduction to today’s networks-and tomorrow’s. This classic best seller has been thoroughly updated to reflect the with-it and most important networking technologies with a special emphasis connected wireless networking, including 802.11, Bluetooth, broadband wireless, ad hoc networks, i-mode, and WAP. But fixed networks have not been ignored either with coverage of ADSL, gigabit Ethernet, peer-to-peer networks, NAT, and MPLS. And there is stacks of new material on applications, including over 60 pages on the internet , plus Internet radio, voice over IP, and video on demand.Finally, the coverage of network wellbeing has been revised and expanded to fill an entire chapter.
Author, lecturer, and researcher Andrew S. Tanenbaum, winner of the ACM Karl V. Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award, guardedly explains how networks work against the inside, from underlying hardware at the physical layer up through the top-level application layer. Tanenbaum covers all this and more:
- Physical layer (e.g., copper, fiber, wireless, satellites, and Internet over cable)
- Data link layer (e.g., protocol principles, prescript verification, HDLC, and PPP)
- MAC Sublayer (e.g., gigabit Ethernet, 802.11, broadband wireless, and switching)
- Network layer (e.g., routing algorithms, congestion control, QoS, IPv4, and IPv6)
- Transport layer (e.g., socket programming, UDP, TCP, RTP, and network performance)
- Application layer (e.g., e-mail, the Web, PHP, wireless Web, MP3, and streaming audio)
- Network security (e.g., AES, RSA, quantum cryptography, IPsec, and Web security)
The book gives detailed descriptions of the principles associated beside all layer and presents many examples drawn from the World wide web and wireless networks.
