Network Coding: From Principles to Practice explains the fundamentals of network coding from a practical perspective, helping engineers in industry and researchers in academia wanting to deploy network coding in their simulations and real-life applications. The book takes a practical, problem-based learning approach to network coding using guided software simulations. With this book the reader will:Understand the fundamental principles behind network codingLearn how to implement a network coding software libraryUse a network coding library to test the fundamental principlesBe able to produce code that can quickly be adapted for their specific researchUnderstand the reasoning of more advanced and latest-researched network coding topics such as reliable distributed storage, partial packet recovery, etc.Network Coding: From Principles to Practice is suitable for Undergraduates, post-graduates, academic researchers and engineers in industry who want to understand and implement the fundamental principles of network coding.Explains the underlying principles of network coding in communication networksIntroduces concepts followed by code snippets that foster understanding, while also providing templates and building blocks that can be incorporated into network coding proof-of-concept demonstratorsGives instructions on how to implement a network coding library
