Douglas Comer is a Distinguished Professor at Purdue University in

the departments of Computer Science and Electrical and Computer Engineering.

He has created and enjoys teaching undergraduate and graduate

internationally recognized expert on computer networking, the TCP/IP

In addition to research articles, he has written a series of textbooks

that describe the technical details of the Internet. Comer's books

the world. He is a Fellow of The Association for Computing Machinery

Professor Comer had dial-up Internet access from his home in the
