This book presents the revised final versions of eight lectures given by leading researchers at the First Summer School on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science in Tehran, Iran, in July 2000.The lectures presented are devoted to quantum computation, approximation algorithms, self-testing/correction, algebraic modeling of data, the regularity lemma, multiple access communication and combinatorial designs, graph-theoretical methods in computer vision, and low-density parity-check codes.
Written by the inventors, Raptor Codes provides a complete
introduction to the theory, design and practical implementation of
a class of codes that that provide a lot of practical value to a
large variety of data communication applications. They find
applications in all types of data transmission, including those
using the TCP and UDP protocols; multipoint-to-point;
point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-multipoint. The codes are so
efficient and practical that two classes of them (R10 and RaptorQ)
have been adopted widely by a number of standards bodies and are
used in a variety of standards. Different algorithms are introduced
for encoding and decoding various versions of these codes,
including their systematic versions. Moreover, a hybrid decoding
algorithm called ""inactivation decoding"" is introduced which is
an integral part of all modern implementations of Raptor codes.
There are publicly available specifications that describe exactly
how to implement these R10 and RQ codes. However, the standards
specifications provide no insight into the rationale for the design
choices made. One of the primary purposes of Raptor Codes is to
provide this design rationale. Raptor Codes is essential reading
for all researchers, engineers and computer scientists designing
and implementing data transmission applications. Furthermore, it
provides results of extensive simulations of R10 and RQ codes to
show the behavior of these codes in many different scenarios.
