DESCRIPTION:
This book is designed for introductory one-semester or one-year courses in communications networks in upper-level undergraduate programs. The second half of the book can be used in more advanced courses. As pre-requisites the book assumes a general knowledge of computer systems and programming, and elementary calculus. The second edition expands on the success of the first edition by updating on technological changes in networks and responding to comprehensive market feedback.
"thaks a lot." according to Omar A. Fernandez. I needed this book to complete one graduate course and the price asked by the school was too high, this one is the same, however a lot cheaper. thanks again. "Good coverage, but difficult to use for out-of-order reading or as a reference" according to Matthew Buckley-Golder. I am using this textbook for a Masters-level course in network communications.This book covers each topic quite well, but I found it difficult to use for out-of-order reading. Particularly when using algebraic notation, the meanings of the variables are not defined in each and every example, meaning that you have to manually go back through the . "Mandatory Reading for Anyone studying Network Communications" according to Biff. Over 10 years ago, Dr. Leon-Garcia wrote the epitimal tome on computer networks, and it is still mandatory reading at the graduate level. The material within is starting to show its age. Most of it's very historical, what the modern comm systems are based on. If he ever writes a next edition, I hope he adds something about modern wifi.
