Summary

Codes and Automata: A Modern Perspective

This major revision of a classic work has been rewritten with a more modern focus and broader coverage. The concept of unambiguous automata, intimately linked with codes, plays a significant role, reflecting developments of the last 20 years.

This is complemented by a discussion of the connection between codes and automata, and new material from the field of symbolic dynamics. The authors have also explored links with practical applic…

Critics Review

“For undergraduates, this synergy of many basic subjects should make an ideal capstone course. In addition, abstract algebra students always need practical applications and computer science students always need to see the “pure” mathematics; the material in this work can serve both ends.” D.V. Feldman, Choice Magazine
