Digital forensics deals with the acquisition, preservation, examination, analysis and presentation of electronic evidence. Networked computing, wireless communications and portable electronic devices have expanded the role of digital forensics beyond traditional computer crime investigations. Practically every crime now involves some aspect of digital evidence; digital forensics provides the techniques and tools to articulate this evidence. Digital forensics also has myriad intelligence applications. Furthermore, it has a vital role in information assurance - investigations of security...

Biometrics is becoming increasingly common in establishments that require high security such as state security and financial sectors. The increased threat to national security by terrorists has led to the explosive popularity of biometrics. A number of biometric devices are now available to capture biometric measurements such as fingerprints, palm, retinal scans, keystroke, voice recognition and facial scanning. However, the accuracy of these measurements varies, which has a direct relevance on the levels of security they offer. With the need to combat the problems related to identify...

Biometric recognition, or simply Biometrics, is a rapidly evolving field with applications ranging from accessing one's computer to gaining entry into a country. Biometric systems rely on the use of physical or behavioral traits, such as fingerprints, face, voice and hand geometry, to establish the identity of an individual. The deployment of large-scale biometric systems in both commercial (e.g., grocery stores, amusement parks, airports) and government (e.g., US-VISIT) applications has served to increase the public's awareness of this technology. This rapid growth has also highlighted...

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."

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Conference on Sequences and Their Applications, SETA 2004, held in Seoul, Korea in October 2004.

The 30 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited survey articles were carefully selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvement from initially 59 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on complexity of sequences, perfect sequences, sequence construction, sequences modulo z, sequence generator properties and applications, multi-dimensional sequences, optics and OFDM...

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the7th International Workshop on Information Hiding, IH 2005, held in Barcelona, Spain in June 2005.

The 28 revised full papers presented together with an invited talk were
carefully selected from 90 papers submitted. The papers are organized in topical sections on anonymity, watermarking, theory, watermark attacks, steganography, hiding in unusual content, steganalysis, software watermarking, and fingerprinting.
