Computer Networks and Internets
The Second Edition of this best-selling text continues to answer the question, "How do computer networks and internets operate?" Douglas Comer, a leading computer networking authority, provides a self-con- tained tour from the lowest levels of data transmission wiring through the highest levels of application soft- ware, explaining how facilities and services are used and extended in the next level. Finally, the text explains how applications use reliable stream transfer to provide high-level services.
Computer Networks and Internets is appropriate for use by undergraduate students, as well as graduate students and professionals with little or no background in networking or operating systems. The text uses analogies and examples to define concepts instead of sophisticated mathematical proofs. The book's four sections cover Low-Level Transmission, Packet Switching, Internetworking, and Network Applications.
New to the Second Edition
■Additions, updates, and changes throughout that cover the latest networking and internet technology.
■NEW Chapter 2 discusses tools students can use to explore the Internet.
NEW Chapter 11 covers long-distance digital connection technologies such as leased digital circuits (e.g., TI, T3, and OC3) and local loop technologies (e.g., ADSL and cable modems).
■NEW Chapter 32 surveys middleware and discusses general concepts and specific technologies (e.g., ONC RPC, DCE RPC, MSRPC, COM and DCOM, and CORBA).
