Coding is an highly integral component of viable and efficient computer and data communications, yet the often heavy mathematics that form the basis of coding can prevent a serious and practical understanding of this important area.
"Coding for Data and Computer Communications" eschews the complex mathematics and clearly describes the core concepts, principles, and methods of channel codes ( for error correction), source codes (for compressing data), and secure codes (for cryptography, data hiding, and privacy). Conveniently organized and segmented into three associated parts for...

Computer graphics is important in many areas including engineering design, architecture, education, and computer art and animation. This book examines a wide array of current methods used in creating real-looking objects in the computer, one of the main aims of computer graphics.
Key features:
* Good foundational mathematical introduction to curves and surfaces; no advanced math required
* Topics organized by different interpolation/approximation techniques, each technique providing useful information about curves and surfaces
* Exposition motivated by...

In 1829, Louis Braille, a young organist in a Paris church, blind since age 3, invented the well-known code for the blind, still in common use today all over the world and named after him. Braille himself modified his code in 1834, and there have been several modifications since. However, the basic design of this code, where each character is represented by a group of 3 x 2 dots, has remained intact. The dots are embossed on thick paper and each can be raised or flat (i. e., present or absent). Each dot is therefore equivalent to one bit of information. As a result, the Braille code (Figure...

It is probably a coincidence that the three main terms discussed in this book, namely transformations, projections, and perspective, are ambiguous. Here is what the dict- nary has to say about these terms. Transformation (a) The act or an instance of transforming. (b) The state of being transformed. A marked change, as in appearance or character, usually for the better. Mathematical transformation. (a) Replacing a variable in an expression by its value. (b) Mapping a mathematical space onto another or onto itself. In geometry. Moving, rotating, re?ecting, or otherwise systematically deforming...

Most data compression methods that are based on variable-length codes employ the Huffman or Golomb codes. However, there are a large number of less-known codes that have useful properties and these can be useful. This book brings this large set of codes to the attention of workers in the field and for students of computer science. The author s crystal clear style of writing and presentation allows easy access to the topic."

Data compression is one of the most important fields and tools in modern computing. From archiving data, to CD-ROMs, and from coding theory to image analysis, many facets of modern computing rely upon data compression. This book provides a comprehensive reference for the many different types and methods of compression. Included are a detailed and helpful taxonomy, analysis of most common methods, and discussions on the use and comparative benefits of methods and description of "how to" use them. Detailed descriptions and explanations of the most well-known and frequently used compression...
