This major revision of Berstel and Perrin's classic Theory of Codes
has been rewritten with a more modern focus and a much broader
coverage of the subject. The concept of unambiguous automata, which
is intimately linked with that of codes, now plays a significant
role throughout the book, 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 more
practical applications, including data compression and
cryptography. The treatment remains self-contained: there is
background material on discrete mathematics, algebra and
theoretical computer science. The wealth of exercises and examples
make it ideal for self-study or courses. In summary, this is a
comprehensive reference on the theory of variable-length codes and
their relation to automata.
