Publisher Summary 1
Merani, Maurizio Casoni (both U. of Modena and Reggio, Italy), and Walter Cerroni (U. of Bologna, Italy) have collaborated to prepare a textbook for a one-semester undergraduate or first-year graduate course complemented by a laboratory course in either electrical engineering or computer science departments. They assume no background in probability theory, statistics or stochastic processes. After setting out the basic concepts and terminology, they explain the technologies, protocols, and devices adopted in contemporary networks. In order to help build competence in all areas, they guide readers through real-world problems. Most of the examples use open-source software networking tools so starving students can practice the drills without coughing up an arm and a leg. Among their topics are ethernet networks, wireless networks, routing fundamentals and protocols, and wide area networks and user access. Annotation 漏2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Publisher Summary 3
Learn the core theory and explore real-world networking issues with this richly illustrated example-based textbook. It provides an accurate view of modern networks through detailed coverage of the most relevant networking technologies, with no unnecessary extras. Carefully designed, affordable laboratory exercises based on open-source software networking tools are included for hands-on practice with real networking devices. Numerous case studies and examples further link theory to practice, whilst the topologies, tools and configurations needed to carry out practical exercises are provided to guide students through each task. Its bottom-up approach is easy for students to follow and perfect for lab-oriented courses.
