Explaining how to apply to mathematical programming to network design and control, Linear Programming and Algorithms for Communication Networks: A Practical Guide to Network Design, Control, and Management fills the gap between mathematical programming theory and its implementation in communication networks. From the basics all the way through to more advanced concepts, its comprehensive coverage provides readers with a solid foundation in mathematical programming for communication networks.
Addressing optimization problems for communication networks, including the shortest path problem, max flow problem, and minimum-cost flow problem, the book covers the fundamentals of linear programming and integer linear programming required to address a wide range of problems. It also:
Using the GNU Linear Programming Kit (GLPK) package, which is designed for solving linear programming and mixed integer programming problems, it explains typical problems and provides solutions for communication networks. The book provides algorithms for these problems as well as helpful examples with demonstrations. Once you gain an understanding of how to solve LP problems for communication networks using the GLPK descriptions in this book, you will also be able to easily apply your knowledge to other solvers.
Eiji Oki is an Associate Professor at the University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan. He received the B.E. and M.E. degrees in instrumentation engineering and a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Keio University, Yokohama, Japan, in 1991, 1993, and 1999, respectively. In 1993, he joined Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (NTT) Communication Switching Laboratories, Tokyo, Japan. He has been researching network design and control, traffic-control methods, and high-speed switching systems. From 2000 to 2001, he was a Visiting Scholar at the Polytechnic Institute of New York University, Brooklyn, New York, where he was involved in designing terabit switch/router systems. He was engaged in researching and developing high-speed optical IP backbone networks with NTT Laboratories. He joined the University of Electro-Communications, Tokyo, Japan, in July 2008.
He has been active in THE standardization of path computation element (PCE) and GMPLS in IETF. He wrote more than ten IETF RFCs and drafts. He served as a Guest Co-Editor for the Special Issue on "Multi-Domain Optical Networks: Issues and Challenges," June 2008, in IEEE Communications Magazine; a Guest Co-Editor for the Special Issue on Routing, "Path Computation and Traffic Engineering in Future Internet," December 2007, in the Journal of Communications and Networks; a Guest Co-Editor for the Special Section on "Photonic Network Technologies in Terabit Network Era," April 2011, in IEICE Transactions on Communications; a Technical Program Committee (TPC) Co-Chair for the Workshop on High-Performance Switching and Routing in 2006, 2010 and 2012; a Track Co-Chair on Optical Networking for ICCCN 2009; a TPC Co-Chair for the International Conference on IP+Optical Network (iPOP 2010); and a Co-Chair of Optical Networks and Systems Symposium for IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2011).
Prof. Oki was the recipient of the 1998 Switching System Research Award and the 1999 Excellent Paper Award presented by IEICE, the 2001 Asia-Pacific Outstanding Young Researcher Award presented by IEEE Communications Society for his contribution to broadband network, ATM, and optical IP technologies, and the 2010 Telecom System Technology Prize by the Telecommunications Advanced Foundation.
He has co-authored three books, Broadband Packet Switching Technologies, published by John Wiley, New York, in 2001, GMPLS Technologies, published by CRC Press, Boca Raton, FL, in 2005, and Advanced Internet Protocols, Services, and Applications, which will be published by Wiley in March 2012. He is an IEEE Senior Member.

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Paperbackshop-US, PaperbackShopUS, 801 Penhorn Avenue Unit 5, 07094, Secaucus, New Jersey, U.S.A., 44 1285 712917, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us.
