Networks and Grids (eBook, PDF)

Technology and Theory

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume on computer networks adopts a balanced approach between technology and mathematical modeling. It covers such important topics as switching elements and fabrics, Ethernet, and ALOHA design. It also includes a wide variety of queueing models, routing, protocol verification and error codes and a new type of modeling called divisible load theory that has applications to grids and parallel and distributed processing. The text progresses systematically and the necessary basics are covered. Numerous examples at the end of each chapter provide sufficient material for practice. It will serve as an ideal text for an undergraduate/graduate course on computer networks or performance evaluation in electrical/computer engineering or computer science.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"Robertazzi (Stony Brook Univ., NY) has written a powerful book on computational assessments of network grids and telecommunication systems. It provides a heady combination of technological and mathematical theories ... . Each chapter has an abundance of challenging problems. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, professionals." (M. Connell, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (8), 2008)

"The book combines elements of theory and technology of both classical networks and grid systems enabling resource sharing and coordination, and distributed computing. It gives an interesting overview of theoretical aspects of network operation, ranging from stochastic models encompassing queueing theory, Petri nets, routing algorithms and load scheduling, up to performance evaluation for grids and grid computing. It is an interesting and useful book that can be recommended for both undergraduate and first-year graduate students." (Jozef Wozniak, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1132 (10), 2008)
