 An Engineering Approach to Computer Networking


An Engineering Approach to Computer Networking


$69.99


This practical introduction to computer networking takes a unique and highly effective engineering approach that not only describes how networks operate but also offers insight into the principles of network design. An Engineering Approach to Computer Networking simultaneously studies all three major network technologies-Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Internet, and telephony. You will find clear overviews of these technologies and extensive, up-to-date coverage of all essential networking topics: protocol layering; multiple access; switching; scheduling; naming, addressing, and routing; error and flow control; and traffic management. For each topic, the book identifies fundamental constraints and analyzes the pros and cons of several alternative solutions. Through detailed descriptions of common protocols used in telephone, Internet, and ATM networks-as well as a tour of system design and protocol implementation techniques-this book shows you how these concepts are put to use in real networks. Practical in focus, An Engineering Approach to Computer Networking features many real-world examples and is supported with on-line material including: Microsoft PowerPoint slides covering the material in the book. A multithreaded, packet-level network simulator that allows users to simulate arbitrary protocols. Simulation exercises covering multiple access, error control, flow control, routing, and scheduling. A bibliography with links to Web sites referred to in the text. A searchable glossary. Solutions to all exercises. With this deeper understanding of network structure and hands-on experience implementing protocols, you will havean excellent command of the field and be better equipped to design powerful and efficient networks and leading-edge networking software. S. Keshav, Associate Professor of Computer Science at Cornell University, has employed the engineering approach with great success in networking co

 An Introduction To Bioinformatics Algorithms


An Introduction To Bioinformatics Algorithms


$66


This introductory text offers a clear exposition of the algorithmic principles driving advances in bioinformatics. Accessible to students in both biology and computer science, it strikes a unique balance between rigorous mathematics and practical techniques, emphasizing the ideas underlying algorithms rather than offering a collection of apparently unrelated problems.The book introduces biological and algorithmic ideas together, linking issues in computer science to biology and thus capturing the interest of students in both subjects. It demonstrates that relatively few design techniques can be used to solve a large number of practical problems in biology, and presents this material intuitively. An Introduction to Bioinformatics Algorithms is one of the first books on bioinformatics that can be used by students at an undergraduate level. It includes a dual table of contents, organized by algorithmic idea and biological idea; discussions of biologically relevant problems, including a detailed problem formulation and one or more solutions for each; and brief biographical sketches of leading figures in the field. These interesting vignettes offer students a glimpse of the inspirations and motivations for real work in bioinformatics, making the concepts presented in the text more concrete and the techniques more approachable.PowerPoint presentations, practical bioinformatics problems, sample code, diagrams, demonstrations, and other materials can be found at the Author’s website.
