Applied Algebra, Algebraic Algorithms and Error-Correcting Codes: 9th International Symposium, AAECC-9, New Orleans, LA, USA, October 7-11, 1991. Proceedings

The AAECC conferences focus on the algebraic aspects of

modern computer science, which includes the most up-to-date

and advanced topics. The topic of error-correcting codes is

one where theory and implementation are unifiedinto a

subject both of mathematical beauty and of practical

importance. Algebraic algorithms are not only interesting

theoretically but also important in computer and

communication engineering and many other fields.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 9th AAECC

conference, held in New Orleans, LA, in October 1991.

Researchers from Europe, America, Japan and other regions of

the world presented papers at the conference. The papers

present new results of recent theoretical and

application-oriented research in the field.
