Summary
Summary
With ever-increasing demands on capacity, quality of service, speed, and reliability, current Internet systems are under strain and under review. Combining contributions from experts in the field, this book captures the most recent and innovative designs, architectures, protocols, and mechanisms that will enable researchers to successfully build the next-generation Internet. A broad perspective is provided, with topics including innovations at the physical/transmission layer in wired and wireless media, as well as the support for new switching and routing paradigms at the device and sub-system layer. The proposed alternatives to TCP and UDP at the data transport layer for emerging environments are also covered, as are the novel models and theoretical foundations proposed for understanding network complexity. Finally, new approaches for pricing and network economics are discussed, making this ideal for students, researchers, and practitioners who need to know about designing, constructing, and operating the next-generation Internet.

Choice Review
While the Internet's phenomenal growth in complexity, usage, and scope during the past few decades was truly unprecedented and unforeseen, the question remains as to what the next-generation Internet will look like. This book attempts to provide a preview of four research directions (addressed in the book's four parts) that could lead to the building blocks for the Internet in the near future. First, what are the enabling technologies to support and sustain this continuous growth. Second, how would the architecture of the future Internet look. Third, what enhancements in protocols and practice are there to support the Internet's infrastructure. Lastly, what are some of the long-term theories and models for the next-generation Internet. To answer these questions, editors Ramamurthy (Univ. of Nebraska, Lincoln), Rouskas (North Carolina State Univ.), and Sivalingam (Indian Institute of Technology) have assembled a team of top researchers in the field to provide a glimpse of what the Internet should and could be, given what is currently known about the Internet. For those who are particularly involved in pushing Internet technology to the next generation, this book is an excellent starting point. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students, researchers/faculty, and professionals. J. Y. Cheung emeritus, University of Oklahoma
