Description

Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach is a widely used textbook that provides a comprehensive introduction to computer networking. Authored by James F. Kurose and Keith W. Ross, it adopts a top-down approach, starting with application-layer protocols and working down through the transport, network, and link layers to the physical layer. This methodology allows readers to understand how networking protocols operate in practice before delving into the underlying technical details.

Key Features:

  • Top-Down Approach: Begins with application-layer protocols, providing a practical understanding before exploring lower layers.

  • Comprehensive Coverage: Includes topics such as HTTP/2 and HTTP/3, TCP congestion control, software-defined networking (SDN), and 4G/5G networks.

  • Hands-On Learning: Features socket programming examples in Python, allowing readers to implement and test networking concepts.

  • Updated Content: The 8th edition reflects recent advancements in networking technologies and protocols.

  • Educational Resources: Accompanied by online resources, including interactive animations, end-of-chapter problems, and instructor materials.

This textbook is suitable for undergraduate and graduate courses in computer networking and is also valuable for professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of networking principles and practices.
