Design of Modern Communication Networks Methods and Applications

Langue : Anglais

Couverture de l’ouvrage Design of Modern Communication Networks
Design of Modern Communication Networks focuses on methods and algorithms related to the design of communication networks, using optimization, graph theory, probability theory and simulation techniques. The book discusses the nature and complexity of the network design process, then introduces theoretical concepts, problems and solutions. It demonstrates the design of network topology and traditional loss networks, followed by uncontrolled packet networks, flow-controlled networks, and multiservice networks. Access network design is reviewed, and the book concludes by considering the design of survivable (reliable) networks and various reliability concepts.

Christofer Larsson is a consultant in network design and optimization. He received his master of science in Engineering Physics from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, and has over two decades in telecommunications as network designer at Ericsson, software architect for consultancy firms and system tester for service providers.


  • A toolbox of algorithms: The book provides practical advice on implementing algorithms, including the programming aspects of combinatorial algorithms.
  • Extensive solved problems and illustrations: Wherever possible, different solution methods are applied to the same examples to compare performance and verify precision and applicability.
  • Technology-independent: Solutions are applicable to a wide range of network design problems without relying on particular technologies.
