It is certain that, over the next few years, data traffic will
dwarf voice traffic on telecommunications networks. Growth in
data-traffic volumes far exceeds that for voice, and is driven by
increased use of applications such as e-mail attachments, remote
printing and fileserver access, and the now omnipresent World Wide
Web. The growth of data networking to connect computers with each
other and with their peripheral devices began in earnest in the
1970s, took off in the 1980s and exploded in the 1990s. The early
21st century will see ever faster, more cost effective networks
providing flexible data access into ever more businesses and homes.
Since the 1970s there have been great advances in technology. For
the past twenty years the processing power of computers has
continued to grow with no hint of slowing - recall the oft-cited
Moore's Law claiming that this power doubles every 18 months.
Advances in the data networking equipment required to support the
data traffic generated have been enormous. The pace of development
from early X. 25 and modem technology through to some of the
advanced equipment functionality now available is breathtaking - it
is sometimes hard to believe that the practical router is barely
ten years old This book provides an overview of the advanced data
networking field by bringing together chapters on local area
networks, wide area networks and their application."
