Book Review: Deploying and Managing IP over WDM Networks

IP has been creating a new digital revolution of data exchange from past few years and WDM networks has joined advanced network technologies chain and have been dominating over other network protocols and technologies. The book “Deploying and Managing IP over WDM Networks” describes the process from beginning to end right from initial designing, implementation and maintenance of IP over WDM Networks. .

The book is a precious jewel for people interested in WDM technology which want to get the whole idea from start to end about design, implementation and maintenance of such networks on ongoing basis. According to leading analysts working in the field of telecommunication networks, IP over WDM technology networks would replace the current ATM and SDH networks and so the demand for learning more about this new technology is really high at present.

Presents Clear and Concise Technical Facts

The book is written by researchers conducting their studies in WDM and IP Network Management project also known as WINMAN and so the quality of technical facts are very high and presents clear directions regarding IP over WDM networks. Not only technical information, but other related information such as management of such networks, high quality data transfer and other service agreements are also discussed in the book.

The language of the book has been kept quite simple giving strength to the usage of book as a reference book. The book content however is kept at a high quality suitable to be used by researchers and other scientific community using IP over WDM networks or thinking of migrating to it from old ATM and SDM networks.

Advanced Topic are Discussed in the Book

The book covers almost each advanced topic related with designing, implementation and maintenance of IP over WDM networks. Management topics such as management of IP Network Layers and WDM Network Layers are discussed in great details making it very useful for the beginners in filed of network management.

Other advance topics such as WINMAN Management system concept, WINMAN System Architecture, System Design and related projects such as IST are also discussed in the book. Over all the quality of book is quite high and provides immense know-how regarding IP over WDM networks and is recommended for users interested in design, implementation and maintenance of such networks.
