Computer Networking Essentials,
An essential guide to understanding networking theory, implementation, and interoperability Excellent preparation for generic or vendor-specific networking certification programs Written in a user-friendly manner accessible to readers who may need an introduction to networking terms Introduction to two popular real-world networking models: the Department of Defense (DoD) model and the Open System Interconnection (OSI) model Includes latest technologies such as laser, infrared, and satellite/ microwave communications Coverage of common server operating systems, including Windows NT(r), Windows(r) 2000, NetWare, UNIX, and Linux Security coverage provides basic cryptography concepts, public and private key encryption, firewalls and proxies, and internal security measures Computer Networking Essentials, written by educator, trainer, and technical author Debra Littlejohn Shinder, starts with an introduction to networking concepts. You will learn computer networking terminology and history, and then dive into the technical concepts involved in sharing data across a computer network. A survey of networking hardware and software will show you how the hardware components, the server and client operating systems, and the networking protocols work together to make that data sharing possible. Several "specialty" areas of networking are explored, including security, remote access, virtual private networking (VPN), and network monitoring and troubleshooting. Written at a level that requires little computer experience, Computer Networking Essentials incorporates elements from a variety of popular introductory networking courses into a comprehensive all-in-one guidebook. It is an excellent preparation for the Network+ program, Microsoft's Networking Essentials core course, Novell's Networking Fundamentals, and the Cisco Systems CCNA certification.

Data Communications and Networks,An Engineering Approach
Data Communications and Networks uses a top-down, Internet-focussed approach to tackle the problem of communication system design. An integrated approach is taken to networks and data communications, with an emphasis that starts from the top level requirements and works downwards, describing how such requirements are fulfilled by lower layers of the transmission chain. While the book contains sufficient detail to provide an excellent foundation, clarity is paramount and care is taken not to swamp the reader with information to the point where the underlying concepts are obscured. The Internet is used as the principle example of a communication system, allowing the reader to follow the system from the application layers, with source coding and security, through the network, with naming and routing algorithms, down to transport and physical aspects of a communication system. Modern techniques such as mobile radio, Voice over IP, and ASDL, are covered, while more traditional aspects such as circuit switching, which still form a significant part of current systems, are not overlooked. By providing a technical introduction and including application examples, this text will have significant appeal to final year students, postgraduates and professionals with a science or engineering background wishing to gain a basic understanding of the key concepts behind data communications engineering.

Wireless Networks,
Wireless is a term used to describe telecommunications in whichelectromagnetic waves (rather than some form of wire) carry the signal over part or all of the communication pathand the network is the totality of switches, transmission links andterminals used for the generation, handling and receiving oftelecoms traffic. Wireless networks are rapidly evolving, and are playing anincreasing role in the lives of people throughout the world andever-larger numbers of people are relying on the technologydirectly or indirectly. The area of wireless communications is an extremely rich field forresearch, due to the difficulties posed by the wireless medium andthe increasing demand for better and cheaper services. As thewireless market evolves, it is likely to increase in size andpossibly integrate with other wireless technologies, in order tooffer support for mobile computing applications, of perceivedperformance equal to those of wired communication networks.

Stateless Core: A Scalable Approach for Quality of Service in the Internet,Winning Thesis of the 2001 ACM Doctoral Dissertation Competition
The fundamental aspect of the Internet architecture that distinguishes it from other network technologies (such as X. 25 and ATM) is that it is c- nectionless (vs. connection-oriented) and stateless (vs. stateful). The heated debateofwhetherconnection-orientedorconnectionlessarchitectureisbetter has lasted for several decades. Proponents of the connectionless architecture point out the great robustness and scalability properties of the architecture, as demonstratedby the Internet. Onewell-knownarticulationofthis philo- phy is the “End-to-End Argumentsâ€. Opponents argue, rightfully, that there is no known solution that can provide quantitative performance assurances or guaranteed QoS in a connectionless network. It has been widely rec- nized that QoS is a must-have feature as the Internet technology evolves to the next stage. However, all existing solutions that provide guaranteed QoS require routers to maintain per ?ow (another name for connection used by the Internet community) state, which is the fundamental element of a connection-oriented architecture. The apparent con?icting goals of having a stateless network and supporting QoS have presented a great dilemma for Internet architects. As an example, Dave Clark, one of the most respected Internet architects and the author of the famous “End-to-End Arguments†paper,wasalsoakeydesigneroftheInternetIntegratedServicesArchitecture that requires routers to maintain per ?ow state. Dr. Ion Stoica’s dissertation addresses this most pressing and di?cult problem facing the Internet community today: how to enhance the Internet to support rich functionalities (such as QoS and tra?c management) while still maintaining the scalability and robustness properties embodied in the original Internet architecture. Inhisdissertation,Dr.
