The design and analysis of coding algorithms for reliable and secure digital communications

Information technology relies heavily upon error-correcting codes and cryptographic protocols to ensure the reliable and secure transmission and storage of information. Error-correcting codes are used universally for sending packets over the web, in writing data on CDs and flash memory devices, and other similar means of modern communication. Secret-sharing schemes are protocols that allow for the secure storage of cryptographic keys, and for secure multiparty computation, in which a group of participants want to compute an agreed function of their private data without in any way compromising the privacy of their data.
