classic text by the master

This text filled in the missing pieces for me in my quest to understand the papers being published in network performance analysis. The book is slanted towards ATM as the the transport technology for broadband networks, but the results can be extended to other protocols as well. The section on traffic characterization and MMPP modelling was worth its weight in gold to me (and was my reason for buying this book), Schwartz gently guides the reader through this difficult (for me!) topic. A must have for anyone involved with network performance analysis.
