…the theory behind them? Nevertheless, you will find the following books useful; * An Engineering Approach to Computer Networking: ATM Networks, the Internet, and the Telephone Network by S. Keshav. * Mathematical Foundations of Computer Networking by S. Keshav. * The TCP/IP Guide: A Comprehensive, Illustrated Internet Protocols Reference by Charles Kozlerok. * The All-New Switch Book: The Complete Guide to LAN Switching Technology by Seifert…

The course doesn't cover as much material, but is still fairly detailed. CS 798 Mathematical Foundations of Computer Networking, Fall 2008, University of Waterloo: http://blizzard.cs.uwaterloo.ca/keshav/mediawiki-1.4.7/index... This is a really great course that covers a broad set of topics, and is some what similar in structure…

on “Ask HN: Suggest some good sources to learn computer networking” ↗…filler that a lot can be skipped with no loss of information/knowledge. PS: The same author has also written two great books on Computer Networking; 1) An Engineering Approach to Computer Networking 2) Mathematical Foundations of Computer Networking
on “How to read research paper, textbook, long text content?” ↗This is a coincidence! I just bought this book last week. It is slim but seems non-trivial. Mathematical Foundations of Computer Networking is definitely needed if one is to understand this book. My interest is to study the J language in an application setting but could only find this book in paper copy form. I am quite surprised as to why…
