Review: This book looks at a selection of modelling tools that are currently used in the design of communications networks. It begins by looking at BT’s Utilisator tool and how the outputs have provided solutions to network design questions as well as architectural issues. Subsequent chapters describe the network: advanced techniques for designing survivable telecommunications networks; how to design and plan a network that has neither too little now too much capacity; a Bayesian datamining approach to modelling so that deteriorating plant can be identified; the emergence of unplanned topological traits in an SDH network; network traits in electromagnetic emissions; and how the randomness of the input and the environment can be mathematically modelled and analysed. The last chapters look at business issues: revenue, cost; radio resource management for delivering multimedia services; security and the use of real-life models to develop technology.
