Wiley-Interscience Series in Discrete Mathematics and Optimization
Advisory
Editors: Ronald L. Graham, Jan Karel Lenstra, and Robert E. Tarjan
Discrete mathematics, the study of finite structures, is one of
the fastest-growing areas in mathematics. The wide applicability of
its evolving techniques points to the rapidity with which the field
is moving from its beginnings to its maturity, and reflects the
ever-increasing interaction between discrete mathematics and
computer science. This Series provides broad coverage of discrete
mathematics and optimization, ranging over such fields as
combinatorics, graph theory, enumeration, and the analysis of
algorithms. "The Wiley-Interscience Series in Discrete Mathematics
and Optimization" will be a substantial part of the record of the
extraordinary development of this field. A complete listing of the
titles in the Series appears on the inside front cover of this
book.
"[Integer and Combinatorial Optimization] is a major
contribution to the literature of discrete programming. This text
should be required reading for anybody who intends to research this
area or even just to keep abreast of developments."
--"Times Higher Education Supplement," London
"An extensive but extremely well-written graduate text covering
integer programming."
--"American Mathematical Monthly"
Recent titles in the Series include:
"Integer and Combinatorial Optimization" George L. Nemhauser and
Laurence A. Wolsey 1988 (0 471-82819-X) 763 pp.
"Introduction to the Theory of Error-Correcting Codes" Second
Edition Vera Pless
For mathematicians, engineers, and computer scientists, here is an
introduction to the theory of error-correctingcodes, focusing on
linear block codes. The book considers such codes as Hamming and
Golay codes, correction of double errors, use of finite fields,
cyclic codes, B.C.H. codes, weight distributions, and design of
codes. In a second edition of the book, Pless offers thoroughly
expanded coverage of nonbinary and cyclic codes. Some proofs have
been simplified, and there are many more examples and problems.
