Network Algorithmics: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Designing Fast Networked Devices, Second Edition takes an interdisciplinary approach to applying principles for efficient implementation of network devices, offering solutions to the problem of network implementation bottlenecks. In designing a network device, there are dozens of decisions that affect the speed with which it will perform – sometimes for better, but sometimes for worse. The book provides a complete and coherent methodology for maximizing speed while meeting network design goals. The book is uniquely focused on the seamless integration of data structures, algorithms, operating systems and hardware/software co-designs for high-performance routers/switches and network end systems.
Thoroughly updated based on courses taught by the authors over the past decade, the book lays out the bottlenecks most often encountered at four disparate levels of implementation: protocol, OS, hardware and architecture. It then develops fifteen principles key to breaking these bottlenecks, systematically applying them to bottlenecks found in end-nodes, interconnect devices and specialty functions located along the network. Later sections discuss the inherent challenges of modern cloud computing and data center networking.
Offers techniques that address common bottlenecks of interconnect devices, including routers, bridges, gateways, endnodes, and Web servers
Presents many practical algorithmic concepts that students and readers can work with immediately
Revised and updated throughout to discuss the latest developments from authors’ courses, including measurement algorithmics, randomization, regular expression matching, and software-defined networking
Includes a new, rich set of homework exercises and exam questions to facilitate classroom use
Audience:
This book was written to answer a need for a text on efficient protocol implementations. The vast majority of networking books are on network protocols; even the implementation books are, for the most part, detailed explanations of the protocol. While protocols form the foundation of the field, there are just a handful of fundamental network infrastucture protocols left, such as TCP and IP. On the other hand, there are many implementations as most companies and start-ups customize their products to gain competitive advantage. This is exacerbated by the tendency to place TCP and IP everywhere, from bridges to SAN switches to toasters.
Thus there are many more people implementing protocols than designing them. This is a textbook for implementors, networking students, and networking researchers, covering ground from the art of building a fast Web server to building a fast router and beyond.
To do so, this book describes a collection of efficient implementation techniques; in fact, an initial section of each chapter concludes with a Quick Reference Guide for implementors that points to the most useful techniques for each topic. However, the book goes further and distills a fundamental method of crafting solutions to new network bottlenecks that we call network algorithmics. This provides the reader tools to design different implementations for specific contexts and to deal with new bottlenecks that will undoubtedly arise in a changing world.
