I11 Local Area Networks: This part explores the quite different technologies and architectures that have been developed for networking over shorter distances. The transmission media, topologies, and medium access control protocols that are the key ingredients of a LAN design are explored and specific standard- iz6h LAN systems examined. 1V Communications Architecture and Protocols: This part explores both the architectural principles and the mechanisms required for the exchange of data among computers, workstations, servers, and other data processing devices. Much of the material in this part relates to the TCPIIP protocol suite. In addition, the book includes an extensive glossary, a list of frequently-used acronyms, and a a bibliography. Each chapter includes problems and suggestions for further reading. The book is intended for both an academic and a professional audience. For the professional interested in this field, the book serves as a basic reference volume and is suitable for self-study. As a textbook, it can be used for a one-semester or two-semester course. It covers the material in the Computer Communication Networks course of the joint ACM/IEEE Computing Curricula 1991. The chapters and parts of the book are sufficiently modular to provide a great deal of flexibility in the design of courses. The following are suggestions for course design: Fundamentals of Data Communications: Part I, Chapters 8 (circuit switch- ing), 9 (packet switching), 12 (protocols and architecture). Communications Networks: If the student has a basic background in data communications, then this course could cover Parts I1 and 111, and Appendix A. Computer Networks: If the student has a basic background in data commu- nications, then this course could cover Chapters 5 (data communication interface), 6 (data link control), and Part IV. In addition, a more streamlined course that covers the entire book is possi- ble by eliminating certain chapters that are not essential on a first reading. Chapters that could be optional are: Chapters 2 (data transmission) and 3 (trans- mission media), if the student has a basic understanding of these topics, Chapter 7 (multiplexing), Chapter 10 (frame relay), Chapter 14 bridges), and Chapter 18 (network security).
