"Innovative Network Analysis and Design" presents an accessible, thorough examination of network design based on modeling and simulation, rather than the traditional OSI/ISO layered paradigm. Part I focuses on the elements that comprise networking, their properties, and the underlying control and coordination algorithms that govern how the elements interact with each other to define the nature and overall behavior of the network. Part II describes and employs behavior modeling and asynchronous distributed simulation as a scientific approach. This approach permits any design concept under consideration to be studied, experimented, and analyzed scientifically and later incorporated into a prototype network design. Professionals, policy makers, and advanced students in network design, information systems, computer and communications engineering, networking, and consulting will find the book an essential and practical resource. It is also highly suitable for short courses and self-study.
