Excerpt from Network Management Survey
This report presents the results of a study of management practices in different computer networks. Five networks were chosen as typical of different approaches to network implementation and management: Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (arpa) Network, merit Network, Triangle Universities Computation Center (tucc), Oregon State Regional Network and Tymnet, a commercial network. A common format is employed to survey each network. While the report is not intended to be prescriptive, some empirical observations are presented for each topic covered.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book compiles a series of network management case studies of different networks that were typical of different approaches to implementation and management at the time of writing. Detailed examination of the management of five networks is given - ARPANET, MERIT, TUCC, Oregon State Regional Network, and TYMNET. The focus and topics covered in the book reflect the then state of the art in computer networking technology, including organizational problems, financial and legal concerns, and user services. Thematic depth is offered by the insights presented on each topic, such as: the positive aspects of a distributed store-and-forward network of heterogeneous computer systems (ARPANET); controlled experiments in networking on a regional basis with heterogeneous computer systems (MERIT); organizational and managerial problems that can dominate technical problems in network development (MERIT); homogeneous networks comprising a central service node primary job source nodes, secondary job source nodes, and tertiary job source nodes (TUCC); and commercial networks (TYMNET). The book's insights are significant because they demonstrate the feasibility of packet switching for large networks and provide concrete examples of different networking approaches. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
