商品描述

This book covers the design and optimization of computer networks applying a rigorous optimization methodology, applicable to any network technology.  It is organized into two parts. In Part 1 the reader will learn how to model network problems appearing in computer networks as optimization programs, and use optimization theory to give insights on them.  Four problem types are addressed systematically – traffic routing, capacity dimensioning, congestion control and topology design.

Part 2 targets the design of algorithms that solve network problems like the ones modeled in Part 1.  Two main approaches are addressed – gradient-like algorithms inspiring distributed network protocols that dynamically adapt to the network, or cross-layer schemes that coordinate the cooperation among protocols; and those focusing on the design of heuristic algorithms for long term static network design and planning problems.

Following a hands-on approach, the reader will have access to a large set of examples in real-life technologies like IP, wireless and optical networks.  Implementations of models and algorithms will be available in the open-source Net2Plan tool from which the user will be able to see how the lessons learned take real form in algorithms, and reuse or execute them to obtain numerical solutions. 

An accompanying link to the author’s own Net2plan software enables readers to produce numerical solutions to a multitude of real-life problems in computer networks (www.net2plan.com).  

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書涵蓋了計算機網絡的設計和優化,並應用嚴謹的優化方法論,適用於任何網絡技術。它分為兩部分。第一部分介紹了如何將計算機網絡中出現的網絡問題建模為優化程序,並使用優化理論對其進行分析。系統地解決了四種問題類型 - 流量路由、容量規劃、擁塞控制和拓撲設計。

第二部分旨在設計解決像第一部分中建模的網絡問題的算法。主要涉及兩種方法 - 類似梯度的算法,啟發了動態適應網絡的分佈式協議,或者協調協議之間合作的跨層方案;以及專注於設計啟發式算法解決長期靜態網絡設計和規劃問題。

本書採用實踐方法,讀者將可以獲得大量實際技術(如IP、無線和光纖網絡)的示例。模型和算法的實現將在開源的Net2Plan工具中提供,讀者可以通過該工具看到所學的內容如何在算法中實際應用,並重複使用或執行它們以獲得數值解。

附帶作者自己的Net2plan軟件的鏈接,讀者可以在計算機網絡中解決眾多實際問題並獲得數值解(www.net2plan.com)。
