Résumé

Stressing the interconnections of the areas of study, Cryptography, Information Theory, and Error-Correction offers a complete yet accessible account of the technologies shaping the twenty-first century. This title contains the most up-to-date, detailed, and balanced treatment available on these subjects. The authors draw on their experience both in the classroom and in industry, giving the book s material and presentation a unique real-world orientation. Features include over 300 example problems and their solutions; the latest and most exciting new algorithms in use; discussion of cutting-edge cell biology applications; and a tiered approach to topics facilitating understanding by a wider group of readers. With its reader-friendly style and interdisciplinary emphasis, Cryptography, Information Theory, and Error-Correction serves as both an admirable teaching text and a tool for self-learning.
