The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Handbook of LAN Technology':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
This is a collection of papers on various aspects, primarily theoretical, of local area network technology. Given the structure, and the variety of authors, there is a great deal of repetition of material. As well as general background, topics covered include error management, topologies, protocols, control, routing, interconnection, security, modelling and simulation, network operating system theory, software, programming languages, tools, architecture, and implementations. This would be of use principally as a collection of references in introduction to specialized theoretical topics. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1995
