Review
------
"This book is unique in covering IP and PSTN routing in one
place." --Jennifer Rexford, Professor of Computer Science,
Princeton University
"Medhi and Ramasamy offer unique and comprehensive coverage of
the fundamentals and practical aspects of routing from design to
operations and algorithms to implementation. This book is a 'must
have' reference for network engineers as well as students and
researchers who want to have a solid understanding of routing
evolution and the latest developments for next-generation
routing." --Prosper Chemouil, Director of Research Programs,
France Telecom R&D; Fellow, IEEE
"This book presents an introspective as well as practical
perspective on Internet routing, including BGP, and how routers
are built for routing. Along with its of PSTN and
transport routing, it covers the whole gamut in routing
comprehensively." --Ravi Chandra, Senior Vice President, Core
Software Group, Cisco Systems (co-author of six RFCs on BGP)

Deep Medhi is Curators' Distinguished Professor in
the Computer Science Electrical Engineering Department at the
University of Missouri--Kansas City (UMKC), USA. Prior to joining
UMKC in 1989, he was a member of the technical staff in the
traffic network routing and design department at the AT&T Bell
Laboratories. He is an honorary professor in the Computer Science
& Engineering Department at the Indian Institute of
Technology-Guwahati, India. He was an invited visiting professor
at the Technical University of Denmark, a visiting research
fellow at the Lund University, Sweden, a research visitor at
Université Pierre et Marie Curie (UPMC), Paris, France, and a
short-term visitor at Princeton University, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, and KTH Royal Institute of Technology,
Sweden. He was also a Fulbright Senior Spet. He was on the
Brazilian Science Mobility Program with the University of
Campinas, Brazil as his host institution. He serves as the
editor-in-chief of Springer's Journal of Network & Systems
Management, and is serving (or served) on the editorial board of
IEEE Communications Surveys \& Tutorials, IEEE Transactions on
Network and Service Management, IEEE/ACM Transactions on
Networking, Computer Networks, Telecommunication Systems, and
IEEE Communications Magazine. He has served on the technical
program committees of numerous conferences including IEEE
INFOCOM, IEEE ICNP, IEEE NOMS, IEEE IM, IEEE CloudNet, ITC, and
DRCN, while serving as the Technical Program Co-Chair of DRCN
2009, IEEE NOMS 2010, IFIP Networking 2014, IEEE CloudNet 2016.
He received his B.Sc.(Hons.) in Mathematics from Cotton College,
Gauhati University, India, his M.Sc. in Mathematics from
St.Stephens College, University of Delhi, India, and both his
M.S. and Ph.D. in Computer Sciences from the University of
Wisconsin--Madison, USA. He has published over one hundred and
fifty peer-reviewed papers, and is co-author of Routing, Flow,
and Capacity Design in Communication and Computer Networks, also
published by Elsevier (2004). He is an IEEE Fellow.
Karthik Ramasamy is co-founder of Streamlio and a teaching
faculty member in the EECS Department at the University of
California--Berkeley. He was an engineering manager for Real Time
Analytics at Twitter. He is the co-creator of Twitter Heron and
has more than two decades of experience working in parallel
databases, big data infrastructure, and networking. He cofounded
Locomatix, a company that specializes in real time streaming
processing on Hadoop and Cassandra using SQL that was acquired by
Twitter. Before Locomatix, he had a brief stint with Greenplum
where he worked on parallel query scheduling. Greenplum was
eventually acquired by EMC for more than \$300M. Prior to
Greenplum, Karthik was at Juniper Networks where he designed and
delivered platforms, protocols, databases, and high availability
solutions for network routers that are widely deployed in the
Internet. Before joining Juniper at UW Madison, he worked
extensively in parallel database systems, query processing, scale
out technologies, storage engine and online analytical systems.
Much of this research was spun as a company later acquired by
Teradata. He is the co-author of several publications and
patents. He has a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University
of Wisconsin--Madison with a focus on data management, his M.S in
Computer Science from the University of Missouri--Kansas City,
and his B.E. (with distinction) in Computer Science and
Engineering from Anna University, India.
