    SELECTED TOPICS IN INFORMATION AND CODING THEORY

    edited by Issac Woungang (Ryerson University, Canada) , Sudip Misra (Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, India) , & Subhas Chandra Misra (State University of New York at Buffalo, USA)

    The last few years have witnessed rapid advancements in information and coding theory research and applications. This book provides a comprehensive guide to selected topics, both ongoing and emerging, in information and coding theory. Consisting of contributions from well-known and high-profile researchers in their respective specialties, topics that are covered include source coding; channel capacity; linear complexity; code construction, existence and analysis; bounds on codes and designs; space-time coding; LDPC codes; and codes and cryptography.

    All of the chapters are integrated in a manner that renders the book as a supplementary reference volume or textbook for use in both undergraduate and graduate courses on information and coding theory. As such, it will be a valuable text for students at both undergraduate and graduate levels as well as instructors, researchers, engineers, and practitioners in these fields.
