<br/><br/>Introduction to Telecommunication Networks -- Legacy Digital Networks -- IP-based Networks and Future Trends -- Survey on Probability Theory -- Markov Chains and Queuing Theory -- M/G/1 Queuing Theory and Applications -- Local Area Networks and Analysisis -- Networks of Queues. 
<br/><br/> This book provides a basic description of current networking technologies and protocols as well as important tools for network performance analysis based on queuing theory. The second edition adds selected contents in the first part of the book for what concerns: (i) the token bucket regulator and traffic shaping issues; (ii) the TCP protocol congestion control that has a significant part in current networking; (iii) basic satellite networking issues; (iv) adding details on QoS support in IP networks. The book is organized so that networking technologies and protocols (Part I) are first and are then followed by theory and exercises with applications to the different technologies and protocols (Part II). This book is intended as a textbook for master level courses in networking and telecommunications sectors.
