He is the author or over 20 research articles spanning his various interests. Robert S. . From 1970 until 1982, he was a member of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of Miami and of the Mathematics Department of Lehman College from 1983-1985. Cahn received his B.S. In 1986 he joined the IBM Communications Depa
The accompanying design tool, Delite, offers you the opportunity for hands-on experience with the design process. The new version (0.91) of Delite is now available for downloading.As the cost of building and upgrading complex, large-scale networks skyrockets, carefully crafted network designs become critical- a savings of as little as 5% in your network can amount to tens of thousands of dollars per month. Wide Area Network Design: Concepts and Tools for Optimization provides the information you need to tackle the challenges of designing a network that meets your performance goals within the cost constraints of your organization. If you are considering public service alternatives such as frame relay, designing y
If you are considering public service alternatives such as frame relay, designing your own network with the tools provided in this book will empower you to estimate cost savings and evaluate bids from competing carriers.Intended for network designers, planners, and architects, this book enables you to estimate traffic flows and requirements in your network and explains how to use various algorithms to design a network which must meets these requirements.

Excellent book to understand network optimization A Customer I have been working in the telecom industry for over 9 years. I have been invloved with the development of decision support systems for network planning and design at one of the largest carriers in the world. Optimization is a misused word but this book does an excellent job of presenting useful and practical techniques for network optimization. If you are interested in quantitaive analysis and design of real networks this is a good book to have.. Try reading the book before reviewing It is true that if you are brand new to networking, this is not the first book you should purchase. And if you are looking for a "how to" book on programming a particular network device go buy one of those cisco instruction books. BUT, if you are a serious academic and want to understand what networks are REALLY all about (queuing and graph theory, etc.) this is one of the best introductory books on the subject. Cahn's preface speaks volumes about the trend in technology education: if all you've learned was how to work on particular products, when something new com. WAN is more than a simple graphic/network topology theory!!! A Customer I didn't buy this book because I liked it. I bought it because it was the text book selected by my instructor. If you look at the title you would expect at least the basic principles, rule of thumb or whatever that will guide you to the optimization of wide area network in terms of performance and money saving. This book is about anything but WAN optimization. A more realistic title should be "Network graph theory and the fraudulent way of stealing your money". I was expecting a detailed discussion of the elements needed when planning, analyzing and implementing a
