Computer Networking and Performance Evaluation: Proceedings of the IFIP WG 7.3 International Seminar on Computer Networking and Performance Evaluation, 18-20 September 1985, Tokyo, JapanThe remarkable advances in digital communication techniques have made computer networking and its performance evaluation very important and attractive when coping with the growing complexity of the information society. The scope of this book ranges from theoretical results in performance evaluation techniques, to their applications in computer networking (local and wide area networks), satellite communication, network architecture, parallel processing systems and database systems. The contributions to modelling and measurement methodologies, and the presentation of the state-of-the-art of performance evaluation techniques, will make this volume of interest to anyone concerned with these disciplines. |
