Elements of Computer Security

Elements of Computer Security Image
As our society grows ever more reliant on computers, so it also becomes more vulnerable to computer crime. Cyber attacks have been plaguing computer users since the 1980s, and computer security experts are predicting that smart telephones and other mobile devices will also become the targets of cyber security threats in the future. Developed from the author's successful Springer guide to Foundations of Computer Security, this accessible textbook/reference is fully updated and enhanced with resources for students and tutors. Topics and features: examines the physical security of computer hardware, networks, and digital data; introduces the different forms of rogue software (or malware), discusses methods for preventing and defending against malware, a...

Data Compression

The Complete Reference
Data Compression Image
4th Edition
"A wonderful treasure chest of information; spanning a wide range of data compression methods, from simple test compression methods to the use of wavelets in image compression. It is unusual for a text on compression to cover the field so completely." ACM Computing Reviews "Salomons book is the most complete and up-to-date reference on the subject. The style, rigorous yet easy to read, makes this book the preferred choice [and] the encyclopedic nature of the text makes it an obligatory acquisition by our library." Dr Martin Cohn, Brandeis University Data compression is one of the most importanttools in modern computing, and there...

Data Compression

The Complete Reference
Data Compression Image
3rd Edition
Data compression is one of the most important fields and tools in modern computing. From archiving data, to CD ROMs, and from coding theory to image analysis, many facets of modern computing rely upon data compression. Data Compression provides a comprehensive reference for the many different types and methods of compression. Included are a detailed and helpful taxonomy, analysis of most common methods, and discussions on the use and comparative benefits of methods and description of "how to" use them. The presentation is organized into the main branches of the field of data compression: run length encoding, statistical methods, dictionary-ba...
