Handbook of Data Communications and Networks

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The object of this book is to cover most of the currently relevant areas of data communications and networks. These include:

Communications protocols (especially TCP/IP)Networking (especially in Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, FDDI and ATM)Networking operating systems (especially in Windows NT, Novell NetWare and UNIX)Communications programs (especially in serial communications, parallel communications and TCP/IP)Computer hardware (especially in PC hardware, serial communications and parallel communication)The book thus splits into 15 different areas, these are:

General data compression (Chapters 2 and 3)Video, images and sound (Chapters 4-11 )Error coding and encryption (Chapters 12-17)TCP/IP, WWW, Internets and Intranets (Chapters 18-20 and 23)Electronic Mail (Chapter 21 )HTML (Chapters 25 and 26)Java (Chapters 27-29)Communication Programs (Chapters 20, 29 and 49)Network Operating Systems (Chapters 31-34)LANs/WANs (Chapters 35, 38-46)Serial Communications (Chapters 47 and 48)Parallel Communications (Chapters 50-52)Local Communications (Chapters 53-57)Routing and Protocols (Chapters 36 and 37)Cables and connectors (Chapters 58--60)

Many handbooks and reference guides on the market contain endless tables and mathematics, or are dry to read and contain very little insight in their subject area. I have tried to make this book readable, but also contain key information which can be used by professionals.
