The focus is on the three building blocks of communication networking, namely, multiplexing, switching and routing. The approach is analytical, with the discussion being driven by mathematical analyses of and solutions to specific engineering problems. The result? A comprehensive, effectively organized treatment of core engineering issues in communication networking. Written for both the networking professional and for the classroom, this book covers fundamental concepts in detail and places design issues in context by drawing on real world examples from current technologies. Systematically uses mathematical models and analyses to drive the development of a practical understanding of core network engineering problems. Provides in-depth coverage of many current topics, including network calculus with deterministically-constrained traffic, congestion control for elastic traffic, packet switch queuing, switching architectures, virtual path routing, and routing for quality of service. Includes over 200 hands-on exercises and class-tested problems, dozens of schematic figures, a review of key mathematical concepts, and a glossary.Electronic reproduction.Amsterdam :Elsevier Science & Technology,2007.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Web browser.Title from title screen (viewed on Aug. 2, 2007).Access may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions.Telecommunication systemsManagement.Multiplexing.TelecommunicationSwitching systems.Routers (Computer networks)Electronic books.localManjunath, D.Kuri, Joy.authorhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut737861Original01242875149780124287518(DLC) 2004274429(OCoLC)55603020Referexhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780124287518An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for informationTable of contentshttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/els051/2004274429.htmlPublisher descriptionhttp://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/description/els051/2004274429.html.b1365445724-02-2224-01-08991003244139707536C0TEFCommunication networking1461220UNISALENTOle02924-01-08mm -engne 0004351nam 2200649 a 450 991078997020332120230703191522.01-00-344537-31-000-97600-91-003-44537-31-57922-535-7(CKB)2670000000160204(EBL)911882(OCoLC)779849898(SSID)ssj0000637093(PQKBManifestationID)12294272(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000637093(PQKBWorkID)10695985(PQKB)10259162(Au-PeEL)EBL911882(CaPaEBR)ebr10545766(MiAaPQ)EBC911882(EXLCZ)99267000000016020420100614d2011 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrInternational service learning[electronic resource] conceptual frameworks and research /edited by Robert G.

It is a high-impact pedagogy with the potential to improve students' academic attainment, contribute to their personal growth, and develop global civic outcomes. This book focuses on conducting research on ISL, which includes developing and evaluating hypotheses about ISL outcomes and measuring its impact on students, faculty, and communities. The book argues that rigorous research is essentiaIUPUI series on service learning research ;v. 1.Service learningService learningResearchEducation and globalizationService learning.Service learningResearch.Education and globalization.361.3/7Bringle Robert G1544306Hatcher Julie A.1953-1544305Jones Steven G143692MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789970203321International service learning3836565UNINA
