Overview

For all computer and systems programmers, analysts, system engineers and students, this book is your essential guide to address the special problems of networking, with all the inside tips and tricks for building and maintaining software for clean, flexible and efficient data transfer. Written by an expert in the field, the book presents the major topic of data communications and networking from a computer programmer's perspective. It tells you all you need to know for programming, what data communications hardware does, how data communication software works, what protocols are all about, and how to implement, debug, test and optimize the associated protocols as computer programs and software. With a breadth of coverage that makes it quite unique and valuable, it focuses on what you need to know to write networking programs, based on "real world" examples. 9 Allows system programmers to "ramp up" very quickly to produce data communications and networking software. 9 Explains how to specify data communications and networking requirements. 9 Develops a good software-oriented understanding of data communications and networking technology, requirements, and implementation limitations. 9 Offers "real world" examples of software systems, including helpful "lessons learned" from protocols as computer programs.
