Leading authorities deliver the commandments for designing high-speed networks
There are no end of books touting the virtues of one or another high-speed networking technology, but until now, there were none offering networking professionals a framework for choosing and integrating the best ones for their organization's networking needs. Written by two world-renowned experts in the field of high-speed network design, this book outlines a total strategy for designing high-bandwidth, low-latency systems. Using real-world implementation examples to illustrate their points, the authors cover all aspects of network design, including network components, network architectures, topologies, protocols, application interactions, and more.

"Building networks with high performance demanded by today’s applications requires a complete understanding of the basic principles and latest techniques. This book is the definitive guide to both."–Lyman Chapin High-speed networking is the essential enabler of modern sophisticated distributed computing applications. This book provides the first comprehensive and authoritative professional reference for high-speed network architecture and design. Written by recognized experts in the field, this book delivers detailed practical guidance on the principles and practices underlying successful high-speed networking. Using cutting-edge examples to illustrate issues of performance, hardware, standards, and applications, the authors walk you step-by-step through the entire process of delivering high bandwidth and low latency to distributed networked applications. You’ll learn how to balance cost and performance, design strategically for mission-critical needs, and prepare for emerging technologies and trends. You can also use this book as a springboard to explore the extensive research literature. Among the essential topics discussed, you’ll find: High-speed architecture and topology and how to achieve large scale in networks Network control and signaling, including traffic management and congestion control Network subsystems, including routers, switches, and end systems Descriptions of transport protocols and end-to-end communications High-performance applications and how they interact with underlying protocols and the network

Feature

This book outlines a total strategy for designing high-bandwidth, low-latency systems. Using real-world implementation examples to illustrate their points, the authors cover all aspects of network design, including network components, network architectures, topologies, and more. Provides end-to-end protocols (transport layer, web protocols). Explores application interaction with the net (information access and the web, telepresence, distributed computations). Furnishes techniques applicable to all environments, illustrated by examples of implementations and historical examples where appropriate.
