Title :
Internetworking optimisation
Abstract :
An approach for designing and optimising local and wide-area data communications networks is presented. Because analytical techniques incorporating these technologies into operational networks have received little attention, a unique approach based on a network engineering process of analysis and design is presented. The process includes three interrelated phases: network analysis, network design, and network management. Each phase is part of a feedback control process that iteratively progresses towards a network optimum
