Taking a unique "engineering" approach that will help readers gain a grasp of not just how but also why networks work the way they do, this book includes the very latest network technology--including the first practical treatment of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). The CD-ROM contains an invaluable network simulator.
“To design future networks that are worthy of society’s trust, we must put the ‘discipline’ of computer networking on a much stronger foundation. This book rises above the considerable minutiae of today’s networking technologies to emphasize the long-standing mathematical underpinnings of the field.” –Professor Jennifer Rexford, Department of Computer Science, Princeton University “This book is exactly the one I have been waiting for the last couple of years. Recently, I decided most students were already very familiar with the way the net works but were not being taught the fundamentals–the math. This book contains the knowledge for people who will create and understand future communications systems." –Professor Jon Crowcroft, The Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge The Essential Mathematical Principles Required to Design, Implement, or Evaluate Advanced Computer Networks Students, researchers, and professionals in computer networking require a firm conceptual understanding of its foundations. Mathematical Foundations of Computer Networking provides an intuitive yet rigorous introduction to these essential mathematical principles and techniques. Assuming a basic grasp of calculus, this book offers sufficient detail to serve as the only reference many readers will need. Each concept is described in four ways: intuitively; using appropriate mathematical notation; with a numerical example carefully chosen for its relevance to networking; and with a numerical exercise for the reader. The first part of the text presents basic concepts, and the second part introduces four theories in a progression that has been designed to gradually deepen readers’ understanding. Within each part, chapters are as self-contained as possible. The first part covers probability; statistics; linear algebra; optimization; and signals, systems, and transforms. Topics range from Bayesian networks to hypothesis testing, and eigenvalue computation to Fourier transforms. These preliminary chapters establish a basis for the four theories covered in the second part of the book: queueing theory, game theory, control theory, and information theory. The second part also demonstrates how mathematical concepts can be applied to issues such as contention for limited resources, and the optimization of network responsiveness, stability, and throughput.
Computer networks remain one of the central aspects of the computer world. This book examines crucial issues and research under the following rubrics: Communication Network Architectures; Communication Network Protocols; Network Services and Applications; Network Security and Privacy; Network Operation and Management; Discrete Algorithms and Discrete Modelling Algorithmic and discrete aspects in the context of computer networking as well as mobile and wireless computing and communications.
In this book, Shank and Govindarajan demonstrate how strategic cost management - an analytical framework which relates meaningful accounting information to a firm's business strategy - is changing accounting practices in leading companies. Using case studies, including Ciba-Geigy, Ford, Motorola and Texas Instruments, they show how the tools of strategic cost management - value chain analysis, strategic positioning analysis and cost driver analysis - provide a sustainable competitive advantage over companies whose cost systems are in disarray.
Education as Civic Engagement: Toward a More Democratic Society is a collection of ten essays examining education—mostly higher education—as civic engagement. These essays are the finest works of scholarship on education published over the last decade in JAC, an award-winning journal of rhetoric, politics, and culture. Collectively, the works in this volume analyze in a substantive and rigorous manner a number of key issues in the politics of education.
Tidak hanya material utama yang memengaruhi tampilan rumah tapi material pelengkap yang digunakan sebagai ornamen pun dapat dimanfaatkan secara maksimal. Material dapat diaplikasikan pada desain ruang secara menyeluruh atau hanya digunakan sebagai material kombinasi. Warna, tekstur, hingga motif material dapat menciptakan suasana atau nuansa tertentu, seperti hangat, segar, romantis, sejuk, bahkan ceria. Inilah salah satu alasan mengapa pemilik rumah menggunakan material tambahan untuk melengkapi tampilan ruang. Buku ini menghadirkan 38 inspirasi desain ruang yang memanfaatkan material alam seperti bambu, kayu, batu bata, dan batu alam sebagai material pelapis dinding. Tiga puluh delapan desain yang ditampilkan dikelompokkan berdasarkan fungsi ruang. seperti ruang tamu, kamar tidur, dapur, dan kamar mandi. Tiap desain dilengkapi dengan gambar 3D yang menampilkan desain ruang secara keseluruhan. Selain itu, untuk mempermudah Anda dalam proses pembangunan, tiap desain pun dilengkapi dengan denah yang menunjukkan ukuran ruang dan posisi furnitur. Inspirasi desain yang ditampilkan pada buku ini pun menjadi lengkap karena di dalamnya terdapat perhitungan biaya sederhana yang dapat Anda jadikan referensi. -TransMedia-
