Overview
Over the past years, the rapid growth of the Internet and World Wide Web has provided great opportunities for online commercial activities, business transactions and government services over open computer and communication networks. However, such developments are only possible if communications can be conducted in a secure and reliable manner. The mathematical theory and practice of coding theory and cryptology underpin the provision of effective security and reliability for data communication, processing and storage. Theoretical and practical advances in these fields are therefore a key factor in facilitating the growth of data communications and data networks.Synopsis
