Quantum Information Theory
by Renato Renner
Publisher: ETH Zurich 2015
Number of pages: 187
Description:
The storage and processing of information is necessarily a physical process. It is not surprising that physics and the theory of information are inherently connected. Quantum information theory is an interdisciplinary research area whose goal is to explore this connection.

Data Compression- Wikibooks
Data compression is useful in some situations because 'compressed data' will save time (in reading and on transmission) and space if compared to the unencoded information it represent. In this book, we describe the decompressor first.

Essential Coding Theoryby Venkatesan Guruswami, Atri Rudra, Madhu Sudan - University at Buffalo
Error-correcting codes are clever ways of representing data so that one can recover the original information even if parts of it are corrupted. The basic idea is to introduce redundancy so that the original information can be recovered ...
