This comprehensive encyclopedia provides easy access to information on all aspects of cryptography and security. With an A–Z format of over 460 entries, 100+ international experts provide an accessible reference for those seeking entry into any aspect of the broad fields of cryptography and information security. Most entries in this preeminent work include useful literature references, providing more than 2500 references in total.
Topics for the encyclopedia were selected by a distinguished advisory board consisting of 18 of the world’s leading scholars and practitioners. Main subject areas include:
Authentication and identification.- Block ciphers and stream ciphers.- Computational issues.- Copy protection.- Cryptanalysis and security.- Cryptographic protocols.- Electronic payment and digital certificates.- Elliptic curve cryptography.- Factorization algorithms and primality tests.- Hash functions and MACs.- Historical systems.- Identity-based cryptography.- Implementation aspects for smart cards and standards.- Key management.- Multiparty computations like voting schemes.- Public key cryptography.- Quantum cryptography.- Secret sharing schemes.- Sequences.- Web security.
The style of the entries in the
Encyclopedia of Cryptography and Security
is expository and tutorial rather than detailed and technical, making the book a practical resource for information security experts as well as professionals in other fields who need to access this vital information but who may not have time to work their way through an entire text on their topic of interest.
The underlying concepts in information security can be difficult to understand and may even be counter-intuitive. The
Encyclopedia of Cryptography and Security
will become the premier reference work on this complex subject.

Recently, much attention has been paid to image processing with multiresolution and hierarchical structures such as pyramids and trees. This volume deals with recursive pyramids, which combine the advantages of available multiresolution structures and which are convenient both for global and local image processing. Recursive pyramids are based on regular hierarchical (recursive) structures containing data on image fragments of different sizes. Such an image representation technique enables the effective manipulation of pictorial information as well as the development of special hardware or data structures. The major aspects of this book are two original mathematical models of greyscale and binary images represented by recursive structures. Image compression, transmission and processing are discussed using these models. A number of applications are presented, including optical character recognition, expert systems and special computer architecture for pictorial data processing. The majority of results are presented as algorithms applicable to discrete information fields of arbitrary dimensions (e.g. 2-D or 3-D images).;The book is divided into six chapters: Chapter 1 provides a brief introduction. Chapter 2 then deals with recursive structures and their properties. Chapter 3 introduces pyramidal image models. Image coding and the progressive transmission of images with gradual refinement are discussed in Chapter 4. Chapters 5 and 6 are devoted to image processing with pyramidal-recursive structures and applications. The volume concludes with a comprehensive bibliography.;For applied mathematicians and computer scientists whose work involves computer vision, informationtheory and other aspects of image representation techniques.

Eurocrypt is a series of open workshops on the theory and
application of cryptographic techniques. These meetings have
taken place in Europe every year since 1982 and are
sponsored by the International Association for Cryptologic
Research.
Eurocrypt '93 was held in the village of Lofthus in Norway
in May 1993. The call for papers resulted in 117 submissions
with authors representing 27 different countries. The 36
accepted papers were selected by the program committee after
a blind refereeing process. The papers are grouped into
parts on authentication, public key, block ciphers, secret
sharing, stream ciphers, digital signatures, protocols, hash
functions, payment systems, and cryptanalysis. The volume
includes 6 further rump session papers.

This book constitutes the refereed postworkshop proceedings of the Fourth Canadian Workshop on informationtheory, held in Lac Delage, Quebec, in May 1995.;The book contains 18 revised full papers selected from 30 workshop presentations; also included are three invited contributions. The book is divided into sections on algebraic coding, cryptography and secure communications, decoding methods and techniques, coding and modulation for fading channels, and signal processing and pattern recognition.
