Features: This book comprehensively and deeply explains the de facto standard of socket API network programming, and also provides a broad introduction to the X/Open Transport Interface API. Starting with a comprehensive discussion of the socket API, the book covers basic programming content before moving on to advanced socket programming topics, including interoperability between IPv4 and IPv6, Unix domain protocols, non-blocking I/O routing sockets, broadcasting, multicasting, threads, raw sockets, database link access, and more. It also thoroughly explores various design methods for client-server services. When discussing the X/Open Transport Interface API, it offers an in-depth analysis of stream control device driver mechanisms. In the appendices, it includes new content such as IPv6, ICMPv6, and virtual networks. The book is detailed and authoritative, with selected exercises at the end of almost every chapter, making it the preferred textbook for senior undergraduate and graduate students in computer science and networking. It can also serve as a self-study textbook and reference for network researchers and developers.
