An Introduction to Communication Network Analysis
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Aug 2007, Pages: 232
This book is a quantitative text, which focuses on the real issues behind serious modeling and analysis of communications networks. The author covers all the necessary mathematics and theory in order for students to understand the tools that optimize computer networks today.
- Covers both classical (e.g. queueing theory) and modern (e.g. pricing) aspects of networking
- Integrates material on communication networks with material on modeling/analyzing and designing such networks
- Includes a Solution Manual
Leveraging this material, the book explores topics in networking beginning with local multiplexing and then covering topics in routing over three successive chapters, including a final chapter giving an overview on the topical subject of peer-to-peer file sharing systems. The book is intended to serve as a guide for a one-semester graduate course and is supplemented with examples and problems at the end of the chapters (some of which are solved in an appendix)
About the author:
George Kesidis, PhD, is Associate Professor at the Pennsylvania State University. Professor Kesidis has authored papers on the following topics related to communication networks: effective bandwidths and traffic modeling, quick simulation, traffic multiplexing (scheduling) algorithms, traffic shaping, traffic measurement and estimation, network resources provisioning for QoS, TCP-friendly active queue management (AQM), network pricing and billing, and modeling and traceback of malicious behavior (network security). His current research also includes the following problems in wireless ad hoc networking: network self-organization, energy efficient routing, energy efficient medium access control and scheduling, mobility management for sensor networks, and intrusion detection. Currently, he is on the technical program committees of 2004 IEEE INFOCOM (Hong Kong) and 2004 IEEE ICC (Paris) and he will be TPC co-chair of INFOOCM 2007. Professor Kesidis is a senior member of the IEEE.
