Abstract

This paper presents the states of the arts of communication networks. Firstly, fundamentals of communication systems are presented, particularly, these of data/computer communications and ISDN networks. Then, the latest developments of communication networks are highlighted, including active/programmable networks, networking for ubiquitous computing, ad hoc networking, and autonomic computing for network infrastructures. Finally, outlooks are summarized.
