The reach of algebraic curves in cryptography goes far beyond elliptic curve or public key cryptography yet these other application areas have not been systematically covered in the literature. Addressing this gap, Algebraic Curves in Cryptography explores the rich uses of algebraic curves in a range of cryptographic...
This authoritative volume on statistical and adaptive signal processing offers you a unified, comprehensive and practical treatment of spectral estimation, signal modeling, adaptive filtering, and array processing. Packed with over 3,000 equations and more than 300 illustrations, this unique resource provides you with balanced coverage of...
Many recent techniques for digital image enhancement and multiscale image representations are based on nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs).
This book gives an introduction to the main ideas behind these methods, and it describes in a systematic way their theoretical foundations, numerical aspects, and applications. A large...

Advances in Imaging and Electron Physics merges two long-running serials-Advances in Electronics and Electron Physics and Advances in Optical and Electron Microscopy. This series features extended articles on the physics of electron devices (especially semiconductor devices), particle optics at high and low energies, microlithography, image...
This book is based on a course in cryptography at the upper level under
graduate and beginning graduate level that has been given at the University
of Maryland since 1997. When designing the course, we decided on the fol
lowing requirements.
• The course should be up-to-date and cover a broad selection of topics
from a...
The hands-on, example-rich guide to modeling and simulating advanced communications systems.
Simulation is an important tool used by engineers to design and implement advanced communication systems that deliver optimal performance. This book is a hands-on, example-rich guide to modeling and simulating advanced communications systems. The...
Software-defined radio (SDR) is the hottest area of RF/wireless design, and this title describes SDR concepts, theory, and design principles from the perspective of the signal processing (both on transmission and reception) performed by a SDR system. After an introductory overview of essential SDR concepts, this book examines waveform creation,...
Computer vision seeks a process that starts with a noisy, ambiguous signal from a TV
camera and ends with a high-level description of discrete objects located in 3-dimensional
space and identified in a human classification. In this book we address this process at
several levels. We first treat the low-level image-processing issues of...
An outline-guide to feedback and control systems covering such areas as differential equations, stability, block diagram algebra and transfer functions of systems.
Master feedback and control systems with Schaum'sthe high-performance study guide. It will help you cut study time, hone problem-solving skills, and...
This textbook reveals the workings of numerous database systems, enabling readers to develop complex database applications. Students will gain hands-on experience by following the exercises. The theory is complemented by detailed examination of specific applications from a broad range of areas. The text assumes only basic discrete mathematics,...
This unique book provides a meaningful resource for applied mathematics through Fourier analysis. It develops a unified theory of discrete and continuous (univariate) Fourier analysis, the fast Fourier transform, and a powerful elementary theory of generalized functions and shows how these mathematical ideas can be used to study sampling...
