Beschreibung
The object of this book is to cover most of the currently relevant areas of data communications and networks. These include: Communications protocols (especially TCP/IP) Networking (especially in Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, FDDI and ATM) Networking operating systems (especially in Windows NT, Novell NetWare and UNIX) Communications programs (especially in serial communications, parallel communications and TCP/IP) Computer hardware (especially in PC hardware, serial communications and parallel communication) The book thus splits into 15 different areas, these are: - General data compression (Chapters 2 and 3) Video, images and sound (Chapters 411 ) Error coding and encryption (Chapters 1217) TCP/IP, WWW, Internets and Intranets (Chapters 1820 and 23) Electronic Mail (Chapter 21 ) HTML (Chapters 25 and 26) Java (Chapters 2729) Communication Programs (Chapters 20, 29 and 49) Network Operating Systems (Chapters 3134) LANs/WANs (Chapters 35, 3846) Serial Communications (Chapters 47 and 48) Parallel Communications (Chapters 5052) Local Communications (Chapters 5357) Routing and Protocols (Chapters 36 and 37) Cables and connectors (Chapters 5860) Many handbooks and reference guides on the market contain endless tables and mathematics, or are dry to read and contain very little insight in their subject area. I have tried to make this book readable, but also contain key information which can be used by professionals.
