À propos de cet e-book
""Ethernet Origins"" chronicles the remarkable journey of one of computing's most influential innovations, beginning with Bob Metcalfe's groundbreaking work at Xerox PARC in 1973. This comprehensive exploration reveals how a solution for local computer communication evolved into the global standard for digital connectivity, examining both the technical innovations and human ingenuity that drove its development.
The book skillfully navigates through Ethernet's evolution, from its initial 2.94 Mbps data rate to today's lightning-fast 400 Gbps speeds. It demystifies complex concepts like packet switching and CSMA/CD protocols while highlighting pivotal moments in networking history, such as the formation of the DIX consortium and the IEEE 802.3 standardization process.
Through a blend of technical illustrations, case studies, and firsthand accounts from industry pioneers, readers gain deep insights into how Ethernet overcame competing technologies to become the backbone of modern digital communications. Moving beyond pure technical analysis, the narrative examines Ethernet's broader impact on computing and telecommunications, including its role in emerging technologies like 5G networks and cloud computing. The book maintains an accessible approach while delving into engineering principles, making it invaluable for both networking professionals and technology enthusiasts seeking to understand the foundation of our interconnected world.
