Authors : Radhakrishnan, Sudhakar (2020) - The area of coding theory consists of techniques that enable reliable delivery of digital data over unreliable communication channels. Such techniques allow coding, while decoding enables reconstruction of the original data in many cases. These techniques have various applications in a variety of fields including computer science and telecommunication. These techniques also enrich the areas of information theory and error detection with various other reallife appl...

Authors : Langtangen, Hans Petter; Svein Linge (2017) - This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This easy-to-read book introduces the basics of solving partial differential equations by means of finite difference methods. Unlike many of the traditional academic works on the topic, this book was written for practitioners. Accordingly, it especially addresses: the construction of finite difference schemes, formulation and implementation of algorithms, verification of implementations, analyses of physical beha...

Authors : Linge, Svein (2016) - This book presents computer programming as a key method for solving mathematical problems. There are two versions of the book, one for MATLAB and one for Python. The book was inspired by the Springer book TCSE 6: A Primer on Scientific Programming with Python (by Langtangen), but the style is more accessible and concise, in keeping with the needs of engineering students. The book outlines the shortest possible path from no previous&#x...

Authors : Lysne, Olav (2018) - Preliminary This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This book answers two central questions: firstly, is it at all possible to verify electronic equipment procured from untrusted vendors? Secondly, can I build trust into my products in such a way that I support verification by untrusting customers? In separate chapters the book takes readers through the state of the art in fields of computer science that can shed ligh...
