商品描述

An authoritative introduction to the roles of switching and transmission in broadband integrated services networks

Principles of Broadband Switching and Networking explains the design and analysis of switch architectures suitable for broadband integrated services networks, emphasizing packet-switched interconnection networks with distributed routing algorithms. The text examines the mathematical properties of these networks, rather than specific implementation technologies. Although the pedagogical explanations in this book are in the context of switches, many of the fundamental principles are relevant to other communication networks with regular topologies.

After explaining the concept of the modern broadband integrated services network and why it is necessary in today’s society, the book moves on to basic switch design principles, discussing two types of circuit switch design—space domain and time domain—and packet switch design. Throughput improvements are illustrated by some switch design variations such as Speedup principle, Channel-Grouping principle, Knockout principle, and Dilation principle.

Moving seamlessly into advanced switch design principles, the book covers switch scalability, switch design for multicasting, and path switching. Then the focus moves to broadband communications networks that make use of such switches. Readers receive a detailed introduction on how to allocate network resources and control traffic to satisfy the quality of service requirements of network users and to maximize network usage. As an epilogue, the text shows how transmission noise and packet contention have similar characteristics and can be tamed by comparable means to achieve reliable communication.

Principles of Broadband Switching and Networking is written for senior undergraduate and first-year postgraduate students with a solid background in probability theory.

寬頻綜合服務網路中交換與傳輸角色的權威性介紹


寬頻交換與網路原理 解釋了適用於寬頻綜合服務網路的交換架構的設計與分析,強調使用分散式路由演算法的封包交換互連網路。該文本考察了這些網路的數學特性,而非特定的實作技術。雖然本書的教學解釋是在交換機的背景下進行,但許多基本原則對於其他具有規則拓撲的通信網路同樣適用。


在解釋現代寬頻綜合服務網路的概念及其在當今社會中必要性之後,本書進入基本交換機設計原則,討論兩種電路交換設計——空間域和時間域——以及封包交換設計。透過一些交換機設計變化,如加速原則、通道分組原則、淘汰原則和擴張原則,來說明吞吐量的改善。


無縫地進入進階交換機設計原則,本書涵蓋了交換機的可擴展性、多播的交換機設計以及路徑交換。接著重點轉向利用這些交換機的寬頻通信網路。讀者將獲得如何分配網路資源和控制流量的詳細介紹,以滿足網路使用者的服務品質要求並最大化網路使用率。作為結語,文本展示了傳輸噪聲和封包競爭具有相似特性,並且可以通過類似的手段來控制,以實現可靠的通信。


寬頻交換與網路原理 是為具有堅實機率論背景的高年級本科生和一年級研究生所撰寫。
