Algorithms for Next Generation Networks (Hardcover)

Data networking now plays a major role in everyday life and new applications continue to appear at a blinding pace. Yet we still do not have a sound foundation for designing, evaluating and managing these networks.

This book covers topics at the intersection of algorithms and networking. It builds a complete picture of the current state of research on Next Generation Networks and the challenges for the years ahead. Particular focus is given to evolving research initiatives and the architecture they propose and implications for networking.

Topics: Network design and provisioning, hardware issues, layer-3 algorithms and MPLS, BGP and Inter AS routing, packet processing for routing, security and network management, load balancing, oblivious routing and stochastic algorithms, network coding for multicast, overlay routing for P2P networking and content delivery.

This timely volume will be of interest to a broad readership from graduate students to researchers looking to survey recent research its open questions.

數據網絡在日常生活中扮演著重要角色，新的應用程序不斷以驚人的速度出現。然而，我們仍然沒有一個堅實的基礎來設計、評估和管理這些網絡。

本書涵蓋了算法和網絡交叉領域的主題。它全面呈現了關於下一代網絡的研究現狀以及未來幾年的挑戰。特別關注正在發展的研究項目及其提出的架構以及對網絡的影響。

主題包括：網絡設計和供應、硬件問題、第三層算法和MPLS、BGP和Inter AS路由、用於路由的封包處理、安全和網絡管理、負載平衡、無視路由和隨機算法、用於多播的網絡編碼、用於P2P網絡和內容傳遞的覆蓋路由。

這本及時的專著將對廣大讀者產生興趣，從研究生到研究人員，都可以用來了解最近的研究和開放問題。
