Description
Network processors are the basic building blocks of today's high-speed, high-demand, quality-oriented communication networks. Designing
and implementing network processors requires a new programming paradigm and an in-depth understanding of network processing requirements.
This book leads the reader through the requirements and the underlying theory of networks, network processing, and network processors.
It covers implementation of network processors and intergrates EZchip Microcode Development Environment so that you can gain hands-on
experience in writing high-speed networking applications. By the end of the book, the reader will be able to write and test applications
on a simulated network processor.
