Mathematics in Cyber Research
«
"This volume edited by Goethals (United States Military Academy), Scala (Towson Univ.), and Bennett (National Renewable Energy Laboratory) is one of the best showcases of foundational algorithms and new research directions applied to computing this reviewer has seen. The range of topics could provide a basis for implementation in many areas. Although it would be impossible to cover all mathematical contributions to computer science in one book, the breadth of content here inspires awe. Fields include combinatorics, cryptography, data analytics, game theory, and quantum theory, and cybersecurity is emphasized in several chapters. Contributing authors position their material in the context of interconnectivity, the Internet of Things, and quantum computing. Readers will need significant background in linear algebra, calculus, and statistics. Naturally, foundational knowledge in computer science (networking, AI, and the theory of computation) will be helpful. A list of references accompanies each chapter, facilitating preliminary research toward more-advanced studies. Overall, the book is an excellent resource for students interested in applied math or advanced algorithms and for experienced scientists, educators, or practitioners who must investigate mathematical topics in a computing domain. Practically all areas covered are worthy of attention from graduate and postgraduate researchers. In addition, many sections include practical applications in computing and system development.
Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower- and upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals."
