The handbook aims to unify relevant material already known but dispersed in the literature, introduce the readers to unfamiliar and unexposed research areas and, generally, illustrate the diversity of research found in the high growth field of convergent heterogeneous networks and the Internet. The chapters have been broadly classified into 12 parts covering the following topics: Measurement Techniques; Traffic Modelling and Engineering; Queueing Systems and Networks; Analytic Methodologies; Simulation Techniques; Performance Evaluation Studies; Mobile, Wireless and Ad Hoc Networks, Optical Networks; QoS Metrics and Algorithms; All IP Convergence and Networking; Network Management and Services; and Overlay Networks.
Download or read book Data Network Engineering written by Tim King and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is certain that, over the next few years, data traffic will dwarf voice traffic on telecommunications networks. Growth in data-traffic volumes far exceeds that for voice, and is driven by increased use of applications such as e-mail attachments, remote printing and fileserver access, and the now omnipresent World Wide Web. The growth of data networking to connect computers with each other and with their peripheral devices began in earnest in the 1970s, took off in the 1980s and exploded in the 1990s. The early 21st century will see ever faster, more cost effective networks providing flexible data access into ever more businesses and homes. Since the 1970s there have been great advances in technology. For the past twenty years the processing power of computers has continued to grow with no hint of slowing - recall the oft-cited Moore's Law claiming that this power doubles every 18 months. Advances in the data networking equipment required to support the data traffic generated have been enormous. The pace of development from early X. 25 and modem technology through to some of the advanced equipment functionality now available is breathtaking - it is sometimes hard to believe that the practical router is barely ten years old! This book provides an overview of the advanced data networking field by bringing together chapters on local area networks, wide area networks and their application.

Download or read book The High Performance and Wide Area Analysis and Mining of Scientific Engineering Data written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This final report summarizes our accomplishments and findings and includes recent publications occurring in the final period of this award. One of our research goals was to develop algorithms and services for remote data analysis and distributed data mining which scaled from the commodity internet to high performance networks. When we began the project there was no effective mechanisms to achieve high end to end performance for data intensive applications over wide area, high bandwidth networks. For this reason, we developed algorithms and services for Layers 2,3, and 4 in the simple data web application stack below. We describe our research accomplishments for each of these layers in turn: Layer 4--Data Web Applications; Layer 3--Data Web Services; Layer 2--Network Protocol Services; Layer 1--IP.

Download or read book Engineering and Evaluating Bulk Data Transfer Planning Over Wide Area Networks written by Simon P. Krueger and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Users of cloud computing services are faced with the problem of planning and transferring large amounts of data across a geographically dispersed network under time and budget constraints. Pandora is the first service to solve the planning problem but underneath it has a set of issues, which are addressed in this work. This thesis enhances Pandora by improving its interface, scalability, modularity, and extensibility. This is done by evaluating the performance of various GPU linear program solvers on Pandora0́9s workloads, and by designing and implementing two new systems: a modular C++ framework called Pandora0́9s Toolbox that solves the bulk data transfer problem, and a web service for planning bulk data transfers. Pandora0́9s Toolbox models the steps of the bulk data transfer problem and has an extensible design that allows various linear program solvers (e.g., GLPK and GPU solvers) to integrate into it. The web service effectively allows users to construct a shipping network and plan bulk data transfers over it through both a web and a RESTful interface.
