Large Scale Network-Centric Distributed Systems
Opis
Large scale network-centric distributed systems continues to grow as one of the most important topics in computing and communication and many interdisciplinary areas. Dealing with both wired and wireless networks, this accessible reference focuses on the design and performance issues of such systems. The in-depth coverage ranges from ground-level hardware issues (such as buffer organization, router delay, and flow control) up to highly advanced application and network discussions, making this a highly useful reference for practitioners, postgraduate students, postdocs, and researchers.
