Book Description

Network Calculus is a set of recent developments that provide deep insights into flow problems encountered in the Internet and in intranets.

The first part of the book is a self-contained, introductory course on network calculus. It presents the core of network calculus, and shows how it can be applied to the Internet to obtain results that have physical interpretations of practical importance to network engineers.

The second part serves as a mathematical reference used across the book. It presents the results from Min-plus algebra needed for network calculus.

The third part contains more advanced material. It is appropriate reading for a graduate course and a source of reference for professionals in networking by surveying the state of the art of research and pointing to open problems in network calculus and its application in different fields, such as mulitmedia smoothing, aggegate scheduling, adaptive guarantees in Internet differential services, renegotiated reserved services, etc.

• Statistical Analysis of Networks (Konstantin Avrachenkov, et al.)

  This book is a general introduction to the statistical analysis of networks. Numerous fundamental tools and concepts needed for the analysis of networks are presented, such as network modeling, community detection, etc.

• Basic Queueing Theory: System Performance Modeling

  Queueing Theory is one of the most commonly used mathematical tool for the performance evaluation of systems. The aim of the book is to present the basic methods, approaches in a Markovian level for the analysis of not too complicated systems.

• Probability on Trees and Networks (Russell Lyons, et al.)

  This book is concerned with certain aspects of discrete probability on infinite graphs that are currently in vigorous development. Of course, finite graphs are analyzed as well, but usually with the aim of understanding infinite graphs and networks.

• Random Graphs and Complex Networks (Remco van der Hofstad)

  This rigorous introduction to network science presents Random Graphs as models for real-world networks. Such networks have distinctive empirical properties and a wealth of new models have emerged to capture them.

• Graph Theory and Complex Networks (Maarten van Steen)

  This book aims to explain the basics of graph theory that are needed at an introductory level for students in computer or information sciences. It also aims to provide an introduction to the modern field of network science.

• Computer Networks From Scratch (Seth Archer Brown)

  This book is a tour of the inner workings of the biggest computer network of them all -- the internet. We'll start from scratch assuming no prior networking knowledge. It is filled with helpful hand drawn illustrations to guide the way.

• Computer Networking Fundamentals (Rinku Kumar Sharma)

  This is the best Ebook for complete networking fundamental. All topic included with deep Explanation. It will help you become well versed in basic networking concepts and prepare to pass Microsoft's MTA Networking Fundamentals Exam 98-366.

• An Introduction to Computer Networks (Peter L. Dordal)

  This is a general-purpose textbook about computer networking, complete with diagrams and exercises. It presents basic principles and concepts, along with examples to illustrate how the principles can either enable or neutralize exploits.

• Computer Networking: Principles, Protocols and Practice

  Building on the successful top-down approach, this book focuses on describing emerging principles in a lively and engaging manner and then illustrate these principles with examples drawn from Internet architecture.
