A lot of content in a short format,
By A Customer
This review is from: ATM Technology for Broadband Telecommunications Networks (Hardcover)
I found the book very informative, easy to read, and to the point. It answered all my questions on this subject.I recommend it for readers without an in depth knowledge of telecommunications concepts and terminology.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Neat, Concise - introductory ATM reference,
This review is from: ATM Technology for Broadband Telecommunications Networks (Hardcover)
This is a well written introductory ATM reference which I will recommend to my friends who have a basic packet switching technology background. Quick to read and easy to follow are the merits of this book. The book which I like most is that it gave concise introductions on the ATM bandwidth allocation, traffic management and ATM traffic model etc. Nevertheless, the book dose not have sufficient details on the part of the ATM interworking ( at least not in details) as I expected as the book's titile sounds "ATM technology for broadband telecommunications network". But it is indeed a good desk reference at work.I would also like to recommend the book of "Essentials of Atm Networks and Services by Oliver C. Ibe " to the casual ATM technology readers. The PC ration (Price vs. Contents) of this book is more appreciable
