Quantum processing and communication is emerging as a challenging
technique at the beginning of the new millennium. This is an
up-to-date insight into the current research of quantum
superposition, entanglement, and the quantum measurement process -
the key ingredients of quantum information processing. The authors
further address quantum protocols and algorithms. Complementary to
similar programmes in other countries and at the European level,
the German Research Foundation (DFG) started a focused research
program on quantum information in 1999. The contributions - written
by leading experts - bring together the latest results in quantum
information as well as addressing all the relevant questions.
This is the concluding volume of the second edition of the standard
text on design theory. Since the first edition there has been
extensive development of the theory and this book has been
thoroughly rewritten to reflect this. In particular the growing
importance of discrete mathematics to many parts of engineering and
science have made designs a useful tool for applications, and this
fact has been acknowledged here with the inclusion of an additional
chapter on applications. It is suitable for advanced courses and as
a reference work, not only for researchers in discrete mathematics
or finite algebra, but also for those working in computer and
communications engineering and other mathematically oriented
disciplines. Exercises are included throughout, and the book
concludes with an extensive and updated bibliography of well over
1800 items.
This report on the state of the art and future directions of
public-key cryptography is published in accordance with the terms
of reference of the European Institute for System Security (EISS).
The EISS was founded in 1988 by cabinet resolution of the state
government of Baden-W}rttemberg and its basic task is scientific
research and knowledge transfer in the field of security in
telecommunications and computer and information systems. This
report gives the results of an EISS workshop on
public-keycryptography and contains seven chapters: an
introduction, the scope of the workshop, the topics chosen,
classification and description of the most prominent public-key
systems, the dependence of public-key cryptography on computational
number theory, mistakes and problems with public-key systems, and a
projection of needs and requirements for public-key systems. It is
addressed to all members of the computer science community: systems
developers, researchers, decision makers, standardization
committees, patent offices, and users and customers of secure
computer systems.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 4th International
Conference on Applicable Algebra, Error-Correcting Codes,
Combinatorics and Computer Algebra (AAECC-4), held in Karlsruhe,
23-26 September, 1986. Selected papers which were given at the
conference have been reviewed a second time and are presented here.
This book contains the proceedings of EUROCRYPT 85, held in Paris
in 1984, April 9-11, at the University of Paris, Sorbonne.
EIJROCRYPT is now an annual international European meeting in
cryptology, intended primarily for the international of researchers
in this area. EUROCRYPT 84 was community following previous
meetings held at Burg Feuerstein in 1982 and at IJdine in 1983. In
fact EUROCRYPT 84 was thc first such meeting being organized under
IXCR (International Association of Cryptology Research). Other
sponsors were the well-known French association on cybernetics
research AFCET, the LITP (Laborstoire d' Informntique thcorique
called et de Programmation), which is a laboratory of computer
science associated with CNRS, and the department of mathematics and
computer science at the Ilniversity RenE Descartcs, Sorbonne.
EUROCRYPT 83 was very successfull, with about 180 participants from
a great variety of foreign countries and 50 papers addressing all
aspects of cryptology, close to applied as well as theoretical. It
also had a special feature, i.e. a special session on smart cards
particularly welcome at the time, since France was then carrying on
an ambitious program on smart cards. EUROCRYPT 84 was a great
experience. We like to thank all the sponsors and all the authors
for their submission of papers. Pakin, Decemben 74ti4. CONTENTS

Addressing the most exciting and challenging areas in the
profession, this text will be invaluable to any professional
looking ahead to the future of special collections and related
cultural heritage work. Special collections today-from rare books
and other specialized book collections to audio recordings and
visual images-offer librarians limitless opportunities to showcase
their skills in curating, preserving, and offering access to these
resources to patrons. Drawing on innovative practices and enduring
values to address challenges and opportunities in the broad realm
of special collections librarianship, this book updates the notion
of special collections to the wide range of materials,
institutions, and contexts where they exist today. The contributed
essays describe the various kinds of innovative projects and
practices that are sought by IMLS and other funding agencies today
and serve to illustrate how going beyond a traditionally limited
idea of special collections opens doors to far more engaging
opportunities. Spanning the converging worlds of academic and
special libraries, rare book collections, archives, museums, and
other cultural heritage institutions, this book will be useful to
newcomers and seasoned professionals alike. The essays address the
recurring themes of managing and welcoming change and the impact of
digital technologies throughout the book, whether regarding new
approaches to outreach and instruction, the acquisition and
curation of non-traditional collections, new structures for
discovery and access in a digital world, or the nature of special
collections work now. Both experienced professionals and recent
graduates from one of the booming archival studies programs will
find this text invaluable in creating a successful career in
special collections or cultural heritage curation today and in the
near future. Covers a broad range of special collections work that
shares perspectives from many different practitioners and experts
in the field Updates the notion of special collections to the wide
range of institutions and contexts where they exist today,
illustrating non-traditional opportunities for special collections
work Expands job opportunities for readers by providing an overview
of the most compelling and exciting trends and challenges in the
changing field of special collections
