I am learning Computer Networking this semester, on which I find it quite interesting in learning why Internet is designed like today. And I also enjoy reading paper referred to in the teaching slides, like End-to-End Argument in System Design and The Design Philosophy of the DARPA Internet Protocols.
Could you recommend some other interesting paper/articles to me, especially those related to higher layers like TCP/IP protocols?
Many thanks for your reply.
Roy Thomas Fielding wrote his dissertation at UCI about Architectural Styles and
the Design of Network-based Software Architectures (2000), which has more focus on applications in a networked environment; but I would recommend it, since it’s related to your request about learning why Internet is designed like today.
