Inhaltsangabe

This book introduces the intelligent newcomer to Open Systems Interconnection (OSI), a set of internationally agreed standards that enable the computer systems from different manufacturers to interconnect and to share information more easily in an 'open systems environment'. A concise and readable account of OSI, it will appeal to practitioners in computing and business/information technology wanting to understand OSI as well as to students taking courses in network management and data communications.
Understanding OSI helps readers developing applications using OSI Standards to understand the philosophy and framework within which those Standards were developed; explains the rationale behind the development of OSI, without going into extensive technical detail; discusses the seven layer OSI reference model and related concepts, going on to consider each of the layers in turn, and concluding with a discussion of the architecturally interesting features of a limited sample of application layer protocols; and contains examples and illustrations from the areas of X.25, X.400, X.500, ASN.1 and other standards supporting the seven-layer OSI model.
