To truly understand how the Internet and Web are organized and
function requires knowledge of mathematics and computation theory.
Mathematical and Algorithmic Foundations of the Internet introduces
the concepts and methods upon which computer networks rely and
explores their applications to the Internet and Web. The book
offers a unique approach to mathematical and algorithmic concepts,
demonstrating their universality by presenting ideas and examples
from various fields, including literature, history, and art.
Progressing from fundamental concepts to more specific topics and
applications, the text covers computational complexity and
randomness, networks and graphs, parallel and distributed
computing, and search engines. While the mathematical treatment is
rigorous, it is presented at a level that can be grasped by readers
with an elementary mathematical background. The authors also
present a lighter side to this complex subject by illustrating how
many of the mathematical concepts have counterparts in everyday
life. The book provides in-depth coverage of the mathematical
prerequisites and assembles a complete presentation of how computer
networks function. It is a useful resource for anyone interested in
the inner functioning, design, and organization of the Internet.
