Nonlinear Dynamics in Communication: Coding, Channel Modeling and
Secure Communications
10:00 AM-12:00 PM
Room: Golden Cliff
A quick glance at the literature might suggest that the tools of
modern nonlinear dynamics have only a few significant applications to
communications, chiefly the Pecora-Carroll protocols for secure
communication via chaotic synchronization. The speakers in this
symposium will touch on synchronization, but will also explore a
wider range of applications. They will discuss the use of dynamical
systems to generate novel codes, the interplay between nonlinear time
series analysis and cryptographic assault, and the self-similar
structure of telephone traffic.
