structuring the text, I faced the choice between logically grouping the topics vs. gradually
identifying and addressing issues. The former creates a neater structure and the latter is more
suitable for teaching new material. I compromised by opportunistically adopting both approaches.
Chapter 1 reviews essential networking technologies. It is condensed but more technical than
many current networking books. I tried to give an engineering overview that is sufficiently
detailed but not too long. This chapter serves as the basis for the rest of the book. I believe that it
may also suffice for an introductory course on computer networks.
Chapter 2 reviews end-to-end mechanisms for congestion management in data networks. Most of
these mechanisms are implemented in different variants of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP),
which is the most popular Internet protocol.
Chapter 3 reviews the requirements and solutions for multimedia networking. It describes
desirable network behaviors, rather than detailed mechanisms for implementing such behaviors.
Such mechanisms are described in Chapter 5, after the operation of network routers is detailed in
Chapter 4.
Chapter 4 describes how network routers forward data packets. It also describes simple
techniques for modeling queuing delays in routers
