The author covers all the necessary mathematics and theory in order for students to understand the tools that optimize computer networks today. Covers both classical (e.g. queueing theory) and modern (e.g. pricing) aspects of networkingIntegrates material on communication networks with material on modeling/analyzing and designing such networksIncludes a Solution Manual UR - https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/book/10.1002/9780470168684 ER -
