Characteristics
• Discuss data communications and networking in a readable form that students can easily understand
• Explore techniques of compression, image compression and Huffman / Lempel-Ziv methods
• Covers voice and audio signals as well as audio compression, including MPEG encoding
• Examines the principles of error coding, detection and correction
• Explains network protocols such as TCP / IP and HTTP
• Review applications and operating systems such as Windows NT, NetWare, UNIX, and Ethernet.
The use of data communications and computer networks is constantly increasing, bringing benefits to most countries and peoples of the world, and serving as an industry lifeline. There is now a textbook that discusses data communications and networking in a readable form that can be easily understood by the students who will become the IS professionals of the future.
Advanced Data Communications and Networks provides a comprehensive and practical treatment of rapidly evolving areas. The text is divided into seven main sections and appendices:
"General Data Compression
"Video, pictures and sound
"Encoding and Encryption of Errors
"TCP / IP and Internet
"Network Operating Systems
LANs / WANs
"Cables and connectors
Other topics include error detection / correction, image / video compression, digital video, digital audio, TCP / IP, HTTP, email, HTML, Windows NT, NetWare, UNIX, Fast Ethernet, ATM, FDDI and more.
Written by a respected scholar who is also an accomplished engineer, this textbook uses the author's extensive practical experience in applying techniques and theory to solve real engineering problems. It also includes a companion Web site that contains software, source code, and other supplementary information.
