About the Book

Distributed Systems and Networking by Kadambri Agarwal is a comprehensive textbook designed for students of computer science, information technology, and networking studies. The book provides a detailed understanding of distributed computing concepts, network communication protocols, and server-based system architecture.

The text begins with an introduction to networking and explains the TCP/IP protocol architecture along with IP datagram formats in a clear and systematic manner. It further covers socket programming concepts, ECHO services, and important algorithms and issues involved in server software design.

Advanced topics such as Remote Procedure Call (RPC), RPC authentication, and Network File System (NFS) are discussed comprehensively to help students understand distributed communication systems and network-based resource sharing techniques. The inclusion of appendices and previous years’ examination papers makes the book highly useful for academic preparation and revision.
