‘Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science’ (UTiCS) delivers high-quality instructional content for undergraduates studying in all areas of computing and information science. From core foundational and theoretical material to final-year topics and applications, UTiCS books take a fresh, concise, and modern approach and are ideal for self-study or for a one- or two-semester course. The texts are all authored by established experts in their fields, reviewed by an international advisory board, and contain numerous examples and problems, many of which include fully worked solutions. The UTiCS concept relies on high-quality, concise books in softback format, andgenerally a maximum of 275–300 pages. For undergraduate textbooks that arelikely to be longer, more expository, Springer continues to offer the highly regardedTexts in Computer Science series, to which we refer potential authors.
