Pressestimmen
"Designed for upper level undergraduate or graduate students in network engineering and architecture, this volume presents a comprehensive examination of major features of contemporary network systems and embedded network architectures. Topics discussed include network protocols, interconnects and switching, network adapters, bridges and routers, transport and application layer systems, QoS and security, network on chip architectures and next generation Internet architecture. Chapters include numerous illustrations and tables as well as concise summaries. Serpanos is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Petras, Greece and Wolf is a professor of computer engineering at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst."--Book News, Reference & Research
Kurzbeschreibung
Network systems are network-attached, computational systems that receive, process and transmit data packets. The advances in high-speed transmission technologies require high-speed link attachments that are able not only to receive and transmit data at high speed but subsystems that store and process packets as well, at speeds that are equivalent to the link speeds. The architecture of network systems, i.e. adapters, switches, bridges, routers, etc., constitutes a new technical area that requires skills in computer architecture, design methodologies, algorithm design and networking. As an emerging field, the architecture of network systems enables a systematic approach for the definition and development of network systems, analogous to that of computing systems. This book addresses the need for a systematic treatment of the technical aspects of network systems architecture, providing comprehensive coverage of practice and methodologies.

very thorough

(Was ist das?)
This book covers networking "soup to nuts" -- you'll learn not only about networking concepts and devices and protocols, but also how the hardware and software are designed to do it all efficiently. It was, for me, a bit mind-opening. They cover the architecture of switches, network interfaces, etc., protocols for packet classification, link scheduling, etc. -- at every level of a network they explain the issues and move you from a naive implementation toward how things are really done. They even cover chip design and specialized operating systems for routers.
There are a few things you should know. First, the book makes no attempt to be chatty or friendly -- it is a densely packed, no-nonsense treatment of a lot of material in just 300 pages. It is a bit dry, but well written. Also, if you actually need to implement something -- e.g a router or a protocol handler -- you will need more than this book. Think of this book as going deeply into the *concepts* for a broad range of networking topics, but not so deep into the implementation that you could actually create what they are talking about.
One thing I really like about this book is its very generous use of diagrams. If you are a visual learner, you will like this book. There is still some room for improvement, e.g. in some cases the diagrams depend too much on information buried in paragraphs above. For example, in a diagram explaining the use of hierarchical trees for packet classification, the diagram should really state that we are trying to match 1010/0111; because it doesn't, I was confused about what the diagram was depicting until I found where they established the context for the diagram on the previous page. But despite minor issues with assuming too much context, the diagrams are well thought out and add greatly to the presentation.
It's an excellent book, and I learned a lot from it.

Excellent walk through of hardware architecture designs

I do network architecture and network engineering so I didn't look at the description before I signed up for this book. Just based on the title I was expecting something that covered actual networks and current trends in design. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this book is not what I was expecting. What this book covers is the design of the hardware used to create networks rather than networks themselves.
At the very beginning you're told that this is designed for a college-level class. Definitely true, it reminds me of the computer architecture text I used in graduate school. Not as heavy though. It also doesn't go as deep. Instead, this is written to give you a working knowledge of many different concepts and designs. For example, it doesn't delve into ASIC or SoC (system on chip) design but it does explain what they are and the benefits and drawbacks of each of them.
This is the first book I've seen that provided a very clear, easy to understand explanation behind head of line blocking. What it is, how it can happen, and different designs that can be used to avoid it. It was also the first one that showed what a butterfly fabric is.
Here's the chapter list so you can see what it covers:
1) Architecture of network system overview
2) Network protocols and network systems
3) Requirements of network systems
4) Interconnects and switching fabrics
5) Network adapters
6) Bridges and layer 2 switches
7) Routers
8) Transport layer systems
9) Application layer systems
10) Quality of service and security
11) Specialized hardware components
12) Power issues in network systems
13) Networks on chips
14) Run-time support systems
15) Next-generation Internet architecture
Appendix) The layered Internet architecture and network protocols
There were only a couple drawbacks that stuck out to me while going through the book. First, it takes 12 microseconds (us), not 12 milliseconds (ms) for a 1500 byte packet to be transmitted at 1 Gbps. That was likely just a mistype. Second, it can occasionally be difficult to find the pertinent text that goes along with a diagram. Would be helpful if the diagram identifier was in bold or different typeface in the text.

(Was ist das?)
This one's not for the casual seeker, such as myself, of an introduction to networking; however, if you can get through it, it's more than enough to satisfy curiosity. It reveals every detail of the bridges, switches, adapters, transport layers and protocols I could care to understand.
The explanations are thorough and straightforward, and this book is great for its intended audience at either the undergraduate or the graduate level majoring in networking technology, but as a programmer, it's quite another topic. I'll finish it still since I find it interesting, it's just a brutal read for someone without a foundation in networking.
