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 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. But fixed networks have not been ignored either 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 Web, plus
Internet radio, voice over IP, and video on demand.Finally, the coverage of
network security has been revised and expanded to fill an entire chapter.
Author, educator, and researcher Andrew S. Tanenbaum, winner of
the ACM Karl V. Karlstrom Outstanding Educator Award, carefully explains how
networks work on the inside, from underlying hardware at the physical layer up
through the top-level application layer. Tanenbaum covers all this and more:
