Résumé
Multimedia Communications by Fred Halsall addresses the
main subject areas associated with multimedia
communications (applications, networks, protocols, and
standards) at a level that enables the reader to develop an
in-depth understanding of the technical issues associated
with this rapidly evolving subject. The book identifies the
different types of multimedia applications, quantifies
their communication requirements and describes the
operation and protocols of the different kinds of networks
that are used to support them. These networks include LANs,
the Internet and World Wide Web, and home-entertainment
networks such as cable and satellite.
Multimedia Communications is an updated approach to the author s Data Communications, Computer Networks and Open Systems: Fourth Edition set in the context of the increasingly important area of multimedia. It is appropriate for both Computer Science and Electronic Engineering departments.
Key features
