Opis

From the reviews: "This book nicely complements the existing literature on information and coding theory by concentrating on arbitrary nonstationary and/or nonergodic sources and channels with arbitrarily large alphabets. Even with such generality the authors have managed to successfully reach a highly unconventional but very fertile exposition rendering new insights into many problems." -- MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS

"This book nicely complements the existing literature on information and coding theory by concentrating on arbitrary nonstationary and/or nonergodic sources and channels with arbitrarily large alphabets. Even with such generality the authors have managed to successfully reach a highly unconventional but very fertile exposition rendering new insights into many problems."

"This book proposes a generalization of information theory in the sense of Shannon to a situation with sources and channels being possibly nonstationary and/or nonergodic. ... This book presents useful and important concepts in information theory arising from original ideas of the author ... ." (A. Akutowicz, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1010, 2003)

The book establishes a unified general treatment for a collection of results ... . The book contains a considerable number of historical remarks together with a rather extensive list of references ... ." (Andrei Kelarev, Mathematical Reviews, 2003 i)
