Network Infrastructure - Valparaiso

This text introduces the principles of routing protocols and metrics as they affect wireless networking environments, specifically in urban areas. Topics include the consideration of ad hoc, mesh, vehicular, sensor, and delay tolerant networks. This book provides a thorough, but accessible, explanation of their individual characteristics for engineers, computer scientists, IT professionals, and curious Internet users.

This book serves as single point of reference for both advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying network routing, covering both the fundamental and more moderately advanced concepts of routing in traditional data networks such as the Internet, and emerging routing concepts currently being researched and developed, such as cellular networks, wireless ad hoc networks, sensor networks, and low power networks.
