| Abstract | This book is big on practical exposure to how networks operate and small on mathematics. The initial foundation chapter does describe Fourier transforms and discuss signals but does not contain a course in statistics even athough it does discuss quality-of-service (QoS). This chapter is a fast overview of types of networks and how everything from personal networks to wide area networks operates. Other chapters in the book focus on how the routing of larger networks is done. The simple bridges and switches of local area networks lead into how routers translate addresses and firewalls protect networks. The book does an excellent job of describing networks with minimal mathematics, but routing algorithms is one area that gets a bit of mathematics. Finally the book concludes with a chapter on how long distances and wide area networks (WANs) are handled. If you want 250 pages to get a comprehensive overview of networks then this is your book. One thing found lacking was a collected list of acronyms at either the front of the book or as an appendix. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
