A Mathematical Theory of Communication by Claude E. Shannon A Note on the Edition Claude Shannon's ``A mathematical theory of communication'' was first published in two parts in the July and October 1948 editions of the Bell System Technical Journal . The paper has appeared in a number of republications since: The original 1948 version was reproduced in the collection Key Papers in the ...

The Ubiquitous Reed-Solomon Codes Barry Cipra SIAM News, Vol. 26, No. 1, January 1993 In this so-called Age of Information, no one need be reminded of the importance not only of speed but also of accuracy in the storage, retrieval, and transmission of data. It's more than a question of Garbage In, Garbage Out. Machines do make errors, and their non-man-made mistakes can turn otherwise flawless ...

Communication Theory Research Group Overview Communication theory concerns the design and analysis of digital communications systems, particularly the physical-layer functions of modulation, coding, equalization, and synchronization. Although a relatively young field, its impact is already widespread; early advances in communication theory have made possible deep-space telemetry, high-speed ...

Claude Shannon (1916- ) and Communication Theory In the late 1940s Claude Shannon, a research mathematician at Bell Telephone Laboratories, invented a mathematical theory of communication that gave the first systematic framework in which to optimally design telephone systems. The main questions motivating this were how to design telephone systems to carry the maximum amount of information and ...

DESIGNS AND THEIR CODES E. F. Assmus, Jr and J. D. Key Preface to the Second Printing The aim of this book is to study applications of algebraic coding theory to the analysis and classification of designs. Designs are usually classified by their parameter sets, by their inclusion in infinite families, or according to the type of automorphism group they admit --- or in other ways related to their ...
