It was mainly a body of information theory until the rise of random linear networking coding (RLNC), a method ideally suited to wireless networks and other cooperative environments. The ease of introducing network coding to legacy systems and the resulting gains in efficiency have made this a widely applied technology with the potential to revolutionize networked communications. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNetwork Coding for Engineers\u003c\/i\u003e introduces the fundamentals of this exciting subject from an engineering perspective. Beginning with the basics, including step-by-step details for implementing network coding and current applications, it also highlights potential uses of network coding in the communications technologies of the future. The result is an innovative and accessible introduction to a subject quickly becoming indispensable. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNetwork Coding for Engineers\u003c\/i\u003e readers will also find: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA structure that facilitates gradual deepening of knowledge, ideal for students and new readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows a semester-long course curriculum structure, making it suitable for direct adaptation for academic purposes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed discussion of future applications in technology areas including post-quantum cryptography, 6G, and more\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign principles for different network models, such as multi-path and mesh networks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNetwork Coding for Engineers\u003c\/i\u003e is ideal for electrical engineering and computer science students, particularly those studying advanced networking and communications and related subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMuriel Médard, PhD,\u003c\/b\u003e is NEC Professor of Software Science and Engineering in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) Department and Head of the Network Coding and Reliable Communications Group in the Research Laboratory of Electronics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA.
