<p> Since network emulation permits investigation of how higher-level protocols interact with the underlying network behaviour, it will be of particular interest to anyone tasked with designing and rolling out new applications and services, especially those aimed at wireless transport. This book represents a comprehensive survey of the current state of the art. It will give the readers a good sense of the various techniques available, allowing them to make an informed decision as to which are appropriate to their particular problem. <br> Dr. Neil Davies - Predictable Network Solutions, UK <br> The Internet is becoming a network spanning this planet, integrated into our world like the nerve network of the human body. In the 20th century we developed the Net, and in the 21st century we are starting to understand, analyze and plan with the highest wisdom from network emulation . This book covers network emulation from all the viewpoints on evidence-based approaches to network science. <br> Prof. Jun Murai - Keio University, Japan <br> Trustworthiness of network systems is the fundamental requirement for our life to be safe and functional, as every aspect of our social and personal activities is heavily dependent on them. This book is a comprehensive and thorough introduction to network emulation, one of the key technologies for establishing network trustworthiness by testing a constructed real-like network. The author has been engaged in the research and development of the technology for many years, and this book will be definitely valuable to serious network engineers and researchers. <br> Prof. Takuya Katayama - Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Japan<br> <p> Due to the currently available computational power and technologies, the scientific work makes use of sophisticated techniques like simulation, emulation, virtualization, etc. Network emulation is just one of the nowadays high-interest topics in computer networks that allow predicting app

In the 20th century we developed the Net, and in the 21st century we are starting to understand, analyze and plan with the highest wisdom from 'network emulation'. This book covers network emulation from all the viewpoints on 'evidence-based' approaches to network science. -Prof. Jun Murai - Keio University, Japan Trustworthiness of network systems is the fundamental requirement for our life to be safe and functional, as every aspect of our social and personal activities is heavily dependent on them.

This book offers the reader both a bird's-eye view of the emulation of quality degradation in computer networks and a detailed view of the existing network emulation tools. An excellent introduction! -Prof. Mihai Ivanovici - Transilvania University, Romania This book presents a comprehensive classification of the state of the art in network emulation for both wired and wireless networks. The different technologies and trade-offs are described with the voice of experience. It is an invaluable and extremely practical guide that will be of great interest to researchers and practitioners in both the academic and commercial fields. -Dr. Brian Martin - CERN, Switzerland
