It is also creating a need for new services at the  ATM layer, CBR and VBR being augmented by UBR, ABR and GFR which have  to be evaluated in the TCP\/IP environment of today and tomorrow. \u003cbr\u003e  With the pressure of all the new technologies available today, the  backbone architecture needs to be revisited and the success of the  TCP\/IP must not eliminate the possibility of adding a native ATM  access to it. \u003cbr\u003e  Most of the research in communication services such as IntServ,  DiffServ and Native ATM is driven by the requirements of multimedia  systems and this book illustrates the new emphasis by bringing  telecommunication and computer communication experts together with  application designers. This is particularly true for the security  issues also addressed here. \u003cbr\u003e  Last but not least, modeling techniques and mathematical models are  essential to assess the performance of the networks to be built and to  evaluate next century scenarios unachievable by a simple scaling of  today's solutions. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eHigh-Performance Networks for Multimedia Applications\u003c\/em\u003e is a  collection of high quality research papers and the in-depth treatment  of the subjects provides interesting and innovative solutions. It is  an essential reference for telecommunication and computer experts and  QoS-based application designers. It is also a comprehensive text for  graduate students in high-perforrnance networks and multimedia  applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1998-10-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792382744\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-5541-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 244cm x170cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 185\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312384266380,"sku":"9780792382744","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792382744.jpg?v=1771525096","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792382744","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
