It details the history and development of such networks, and defines their terminology and architecture, before progressing to aspects such as signaling and standards. There is inclusive coverage of SONET\/SDH, ATM networks, Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), optical networks, access networks and voice over ATM and MPLS.\u003cbr\u003e Connection-oriented Networks:\u003cbr\u003e * Provides in-depth, systematic coverage of several connection-oriented networks in a single volume\u003cbr\u003e * Explains topics such as the Generic Framing Procedure, Label Distribution Protocols, Wavelength Routing Optical Networks, Optical Burst Switching, and Access Networks in det\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This book presents a unique perspective on the various flavours of connection-orientated networks.\" (\u003ci\u003eIEEE Communications Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, June 2006)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Author.  \u003cp\u003ePreface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eList of abbreviations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
