It has no pretensions to exhaustiveness, and indeed, no pretensions at all. Its purpose is to provide, for mathematicians of some maturity, an easy introduction to the ideas and principals known theorems of a certain body of coding theory." "Jacob Wolfowitz (March 19, 1910 July 16, 1981) was a Polish-born American statistician and Shannon Award-winning information theorist. He was the father of former United States Deputy Secretary of Defense and World Bank Group President Paul Wolfowitz.Wolfowitz's main contributions were in the fields of statistical decision theory, non-parametric statistics, sequential analysis, and information theory. One of his results is the strong converse to Claude Shannon's coding theorem. While Shannon could prove only that the block error probability can not become arbitrarily small if the transmission rate is above the channel capacity, Wolfowitz proved that the block error rate actually converges to one. As a consequence, Shannon's original result is today termed "the weak theorem" (sometimes also Shannon's "conjecture" by some authors).".

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. ix, 125 pp. Original wrappers. Very Good. This copy does NOT have any library markings. First Edition. SIGNED BY JACOB WOLFOWITZ: "With best regards/ Jacob Wolfowitz." "Starting in 1957 Wolfowitz devoted an increasing proportion of his research to information theory. . . . Wolfowitz gave various limits on the rate at which information can be sent for various types of channels. His monograph Coding Theorems of Information Theory contains most of these results" (D.S.B. 18: 997). Origins of Cyberspace 1069.
