Finally, the text explains how applications use reliable stream transfer to provide high-level services.\n\nComputer Networks and Internets is appropriate for use by undergraduate students, as well as graduate students and professionals with little or no background in networking or operating systems. The text uses analogies and examples to define concepts instead of sophisticated mathematical proofs."}, "latest_revision": 11, "revision": 11, "created": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2008-04-01T03:28:50.625462"}, "last_modified": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2024-07-16T16:26:12.962633"}}
