   Objectives

The missions of IJICoT are to improve international research on topical areas by publishing high-quality articles, and to expose the readers to the recent advances in these areas.

   Readership

• Professors and graduate students in mathematics, telecommunications, computer science, and electrical engineering
• Coding theorists, telecommunication researchers, engineers and managers
• General participants in networking and multimedia technologies

   Contents

Information theory and its important sub-field, coding theory, play central roles in the theoretical computer science. As coding theory occupies an important position within the field of information theory, the focus of IJICoT is to lay more weight on publishing state-of-the-art research articles relating to coding theory. However, articles discussing other issues within information theory are also of interest to this journal

Coding theory contributes to the theory of error-correcting codes. Progress in most research in this area is based on algebraic, combinatorial or probabilistic approaches. IJICoT serves as a medium to report, exchange, and discuss work-in-progress, experience, trend-setting ideas on constructions/existence of codes, limitations/non-existence of codes, efficient algorithms for encoding/decoding codes, and scientific knowledge that make use of coding theory methods. In addition, practical contributions of the aforementioned theoretical approaches, such as applications to cryptography, network coding, network security, computational complexity theory, communication networks, as well as applications to other areas of mathematics and computer science are included.

   Subject Coverage
