Description

we deal with planning and design of data communication systems. We look
first in Section I at the larger issues of how the organizational strategy, culture and
policies affect planning and designing data communication systems. In Section II, we
look at systematic methods for planning and design. Section III is an overview of design
algorithms and tools. Appendix A gives some of the more straightforward of the
quantitative design techniques. Finally, Appendix B is a case study of on-line book sales.
