From Classical to Quantum Shannon Theory
by Mark M. Wilde
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 663
Description:
The aim of this book is to develop 'from the ground up' many of the major developments in the general area of study known as quantum Shannon theory. As such, we spend a significant amount of time on quantum mechanics for quantum information theory, we give a careful study of the important unit protocols of teleportation, super-dense coding, and entanglement distribution, and we develop many of the tools necessary for understanding information transmission or compression.

Network Coding Theory
by Raymond Yeung, S-Y Li, N Cai - Now Publishers Inc
A tutorial on the basics of the theory of network coding. It presents network coding for the transmission from a single source node, and deals with the problem under the more general circumstances when there are multiple source nodes.
