Navigating Network Complexity: Next-generation Routing with SDN, Service Virtualization, and Service Chaining
by Russ White, Jeff Tantsura
Introduction
Every engineer, no matter what type of engineering they do, face complexity almost constantly. The faster, cheaper, higher quality triad are the constant companion of everything the engineer does. Sometimes, though, the complexity isn’t so obvious. For instance, how long will the software project take? Two hours, two weeks, or too long is the common reply—another encounter with complexity.
While research into complexity theory has proceeded apace in the scientific and mathematical worlds, the application of the theories and ideas to more practical engineering problems, particularly in a way that the “average engineer” can read and understand, simply hasn’t kept pace. This book aims to fill that gap for network engineering.
