Pseudorandom sequences have widespread applications, for instance, in
spread spectrum, code division multiple access, optical and ultrawide
band communication systems, as well as in ranging systems global
positioning systems, circuit testing and stream ciphers. Such sequences
also have strong ties to error-correcting codes.
This volume contains survey and research papers on sequences and their
applications. It brings together leading experts from discrete
mathematics, computer science and communications engineering, and helps
to bridge advances in these different areas. Papers in this volume
discuss the theory of sequences and their applications in cryptography,
coding theory, communications systems, numerical computation and
computer simulation.
