Description
This volume presents the proceedings of the first
French-Soviet workshop on algebraic coding, held in Paris in
July 1991. The idea for the workshop, born in Leningrad (now
St. Petersburg) in 1990, was to bring together some of the
best Soviet coding theorists. Scientists from France,
Finland, Germany, Israel, Italy, Spain, and the United
States also attended.
The papers in the volume fall rather naturally into four
categories:
- Applications of exponential sums
- Covering radius
- Constructions
-Decoding.
