This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market_Desc: Practicing hardware and software engineers in the telecommunications industry. Graduate students of electrical and computer engineering. Special Features: The most comprehensive book available on broadband packet switching architectures." Interweaves fundamental concepts with real-world applications." Includes engineering case studies from wireless and fiber-optic communications. About The Book: At a time when ever-increasing amounts of data are being distributed on communication networks, the design of high-speed, reliable switching systems is of central importance. This book provides systematic coverage of all the main packet-switching architectures, and describes both theoretical and practical topics in detail. The author team has broad industrial and academic experience and is ideally placed to cover these topics. The book can be used as a textbook for graduate-level courses but is also aimed at engineers involved in the design or administration of high-speed networks. It is the most practically-oriented book on the subject and will be an excellent addition to Wiley's strong list in telecommunications.
