Encyclopedia of Networking 2nd Edition

This book contains comprehensive, straightforward summaries of the major concepts, issues, and approaches related to networking. Networking is defined broadly to encompass configurations ranging from a couple of connected computers just a few feet apart to a network of several thousand machines (of all types and sizes) scattered around the world. You’ll find discussions of networking as it’s done by servers and clients, managers and agents, peers, and even over the telephone.

Embedded Systems Specification and Design Languages Selected Contributions

 

System description languages like SystemC and synchronous languages like Esterel are becoming more and more popular for the efficient development of modern hardware-software systems. The common goal of these languages is to establish a model-based design flow, where different design tasks like simulation, verification and code generation (for both hardware and software) can be performed on the basis of a single system description.
