Performance Analysis of Telecommunications and Local Area Networks presents information on teletraffic engineering, with emphasis on modeling techniques, queuing theory, and performance analysis for the public-switched telephone network and computer communication networks. Coverage includes twisted pair cables and coaxial cables, subscriber loops, multistage network switching, modeling techniques for traffic flow and service time, random access networks, and much more. End-of-chapter problems with solutions are also included. Performance Analysis of Telecommunications and Local Area Networks is also a useful reference for practicing engineers but is intended as a textbook in advanced- level courses.
