Network Coding and Subspace Designs, Paperback / softback Book

Network Coding and Subspace Designs Paperback / softback

Edited by Marcus Greferath, Mario Osvin Pavcevic, Natalia Silberstein, Maria Angeles Vazquez-Castro

Part of the Signals and Communication Technology series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book, written by experts from universities and major research laboratories, addresses the hot topic of network coding, a powerful scheme for information transmission in networks that yields near-optimal throughput.

It introduces readers to this striking new approach to network coding, in which the network is not simply viewed as a mechanism for delivering packets, but rather an algebraic structure named the subspace, which these packets span.

This leads to a new kind of coding theory, employing what are called subspace codes.

The book presents selected, highly relevant advanced research output on: Subspace Codes and Rank Metric Codes; Finite Geometries and Subspace Designs; Application of Network Coding; Codes for Distributed Storage Systems.

The outcomes reflect research conducted within the framework of the European COST Action IC1104: Random Network Coding and Designs over GF(q).

Taken together, they offer communications engineers, R&D engineers, researchers and graduate students in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Electrical Engineering a comprehensive reference guide to the construction of optimal network codes, as well as efficient encoding and decoding schemes for a given network code.
