Testing of Communicating Systems presents the latest worldwide results
in both the theory and practice of the testing of communicating systems.
This volume provides a forum that brings together the substantial volume
of research on the testing of communicating systems, ranging from
conference testing through interoperability testing to performance and
QoS testing. The following topics are discussed in detail:
Types of testing;
Phases of the testing process;
Classes of systems to be tested; and
Theory and practice of testing.£/LIST£
This book contains the selected proceedings of the 12th International
Workshop on the Testing of Communicating Systems (formerly the
International Workshop on Protocol Test Systems), sponsored by the
International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP), and held in
Budapest, Hungary, in September 1999.
The book contains not only interesting research on testing different
communication technologies from telecom and datacom systems to
distributed systems, but also presents reports on the application of
these results in industry.
Testing of Communicating Systems will be essential reading for
engineers, IT managers and research personnel working in computer
science and telecommunications.
