Second, the student should gain an understanding of the methods used internally by Internet tools: naming schemes, coding techniques, communication protocols, etc. To serve this goal, the book covers the methods that make the Internet possible. The chapters have practical exercises and problems at the end intended to reinforce or extend the students understanding.
