A general block diagram of a point-to-point digital communication system was given in
Figure 1.1. The source encoder converts the sequence of symbols from the source to a …

This definitive textbook provides a solid introduction to discrete and continuous stochastic
processes, tackling a complex field in a way that instils a deep understanding of the relevant …

The following notes were developed by the author in July 1970 in a aourse on Information

A low-density parity-check code is a code specified by a parity-check matrix with the
following properties: each column contains a small fixed number j\geq 3 of l's and each row …

An algorithm is defined for establishing routing tables in the individual nodes of a data
network. The routing table at a node i specifies, for each other node j, what fraction of the …

The problem of allocating network resources to the users of an integrated services network
is investigated in the context of rate-based flow control. The network is assumed to be a …

This classic textbook aims to provide a fundamental understanding of the principles that
underlie the design of data networks, which form the backbone of the modern internet. It was …

In honor of the twenty-fifth anniversary of Huffman coding, four new results about Huffman
codes are presented. The first result shows that a binary prefix condition code is a Huffman …

The information theoretic approach and the collision resolution approach to multiaccess
channels are reviewed in terms of the underlying communication problems that both are …

Upper bounds are derived on the probability of error that can be achieved by using block
codes on general time-discrete memoryless channels. Both amplitude-discrete and …
