Reviews"In the book, consisting of 9 chapters, individual chapters can be grouped into three functional blocks. In the first one, the authors present the principles of accessing computer networks and the basic issues of connecting and integrating various network solutions along with the principles of datagram communication. In the second segment of the book, the emphasis is placed on the quality of communication, in particular flow and congestion control, allowing to counteract overload phenomena in communication between end users.... The last chapters of the book concern data formatting, network security and the principles of realization of selected network applications.An important supplement to the book are numerous examples and a large number of exercises and tasks for the readers. The authors add sketchy solutions to some of them. The book gives therefore interesting and useful material for people who want to learn the basics of computer networks operation." --zbMath/European Mathematical Society and the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences and Humanities
