This book explores the foundations, mechanisms, and real-world applications of Time-Sensitive Networking and generalized Precision Time Protocol, providing a comprehensive examination of how Scheduled Ethernet is transforming modern communication systems. Covering standardization efforts, synchronization principles, traffic shaping, redundancy, interoperability, and case studies across industries such as automotive, industrial automation, broadcasting, aerospace, and smart infrastructure, it demonstrates how TSN and gPTP deliver deterministic performance for critical applications. With a forward-looking perspective on integration with cloud, edge computing, artificial intelligence, and future Internet architectures, the book offers a detailed view of how TSN is shaping the next generation of reliable, synchronized, and converged networks.
