Description
While there are books treating individual topics contained in this book, this will be the first single volume providing a cohesive treatment on this subject as a whole. This goes beyond optical communications in that it includes related topics such as sensing, displays, computing, and data storage.
Reviews / Votes
"This text for senior undergraduate and first-year graduate students as well as practitioners summarizes and reviews some of the recent advances in optical information processing and communications. The contributors are active researchers from around the world. A sampling of topics includes the use of optics in communication, switching, transformation, information storage, pattern recognition, computing, and sensing. Coverage extends to advanced displays and fiber optical networks." --Book News, Inc. (R), Portland, ORMore details
