{"product_id":"the-theory-of-information-and-robert-mceliece-9780521000956","title":"The Theory of Information and Coding","description":"This revised edition of McEliece's classic is a self-contained introduction to all basic results in the theory of information and coding. This theory was developed to deal with the fundamental problem of communication, that of reproducing at one point, either exactly or approximately, a message selected at another point. There is a short and elementary overview introducing the reader to the concept of coding. Following the main results, the channel and source coding theorems is a study of specific coding schemes which can be used for channel and source coding. This volume can be used either for self-study, or for a graduate\/undergraduate level course at university. It includes dozens of worked examples and several hundred problems for solution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert McEliece\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521000955\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521000956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/18\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 410\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.00d","brand":"Robert McEliece","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44491359289599,"sku":"9780521000956","price":202.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9c10c815-4d52-45ff-84ce-fa759e3b2dc9.jpg?v=1699450759","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-theory-of-information-and-robert-mceliece-9780521000956","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
