description: Students in engineering and statistics, communication engineers, and mathematicians will be the audience for this text on source coding. Initial chapters contain an overview of information theory and outline the basic principles of information theory and source coding. From this foundation the text moves to a description of arithmetic code and its modification into a universal code. Subsequent chapters describe universal coding of integers, texts, and compound sources, with a demonstration of their applications in various data analysis problems. Exercises are included with each chapter. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
