The index coding problem provides a simple yet rich model for
several important engineering tasks such as satellite
communication, content broadcasting, distributed caching,
device-to-device relaying, and interference management. This
monograph provides a broad overview of this fascinating subject,
focusing on the simplest form of multiple-unicast index coding. The
main objective in studying the index coding problem are to
characterize the capacity region for a general index coding
instance in a computable expression and to develop the coding
scheme that can achieve it. Despite their simplicity, these two
closely related questions are extremely difficult and precise
answers to them, after twenty years of vigorous investigation, are
still in terra incognita. There are, nonetheless, many elegant
results that shed light on the fundamental challenges in
multiple-unicast network communication and expose intriguing
interplay between coding theory, graph theory, and information
theory. This monograph contains a concise survey of these results
in a unified framework. It further discusses the relation to
Network Coding and Distributed Storage. Fundamentals of Index
Coding gives the reader a concise, yet comprehensive, overview of
the work undertaken on this important topic; its relationship to
adjacent areas and lays the groundwork for future research. It is a
valuable starting point for all researchers and students in
Information Theory.
