Synopsis

The object of this book is to cover most of the currently relevant areas of data communications and networks. These include: 

  • Communications protocols (especially TCP/IP)
  • Networking (especially in Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, FDDI and ATM)
  • Networking operating systems (especially in Windows NT, Novell NetWare and UNIX)
  • Communications programs (especially in serial communications, parallel communications and TCP/IP)
  • Computer hardware (especially in PC hardware, serial communications and parallel communication)
The book thus splits into 15 different areas, these are: 

  • General data compression (Chapters 2 and 3)
  • Video, images and sound (Chapters 4-11 )
  • Error coding and encryption (Chapters 12-17)
  • TCP/IP, WWW, Internets and Intranets (Chapters 18-20 and 23)
  • Electronic Mail (Chapter 21 )
  • HTML (Chapters 25 and 26)
  • Java (Chapters 27-29)
  • Communication Programs (Chapters 20, 29 and 49)
  • Network Operating Systems (Chapters 31-34)
  • LANs/WANs (Chapters 35, 38-46)
  • Serial Communications (Chapters 47 and 48)
  • Parallel Communications (Chapters 50-52)
  • Local Communications (Chapters 53-57)
  • Routing and Protocols (Chapters 36 and 37)
  • Cables and connectors (Chapters 58--60)

Many handbooks and reference guides on the market contain endless tables and mathematics, or are dry to read and contain very little insight in their subject area. I have tried to make this book readable, but also contain key information which can be used by professionals.

Review

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This handbook is split up into 10 main sections relating to communication and networks including interfaces, network elements and their protocols together with network operating systems. ... It is an excellent resource to students, researchers, teachers in the academic community. ... A number of reference materials have been presented as appendices for ready references to researchers and teaching community. As a whole the author has developed a most valuable work for the community who are actively participating for the excellence in teaching and research." (Prabhat Kumar Mahanti, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1101 (3), 2007)
