Customer ReviewsRating: 5 out of 5 Break a new ground the network switching theory. Explosion of the Internet pushes the demand of bandwidth to a critical point. Various technologies on opical fibre system enhance the transmission bandwidth in the worldwide communication system. But, a high transmission bandwidth network reveals its bottleneck on the switching bandwidth - how to switch singal and data in tight time bound in various fashions.Existing router and switch vendors use network flow probability models to simulate the performance and blocking probability of a switching matrix design. This trial and error approach has no guarantee on the performance and implementation complexity. Prof. Li breaks a new ground by using algebra calculation in the switching fibric representation. By his 20+ years research, his algebra algorithm has an unique ability in handling non-blocking switching, Time-Space-Time 3-phase switching and concentrator/sorter implementation. And he suggests some interesting implementation oriented design in reducing implementation complexity in a manhatten VLSI layout. This book covers Prof. Li's lifetime work and his research in switching, probability models and information theory. It worths any information engineers for a deep look, and it's a fanastic reference book for any switching researchers. John Ho :-p
