XIV Preface

optical computing, which takes advantage of parallelism of optics. Chapter 10
describes the principles of optical fiber sensors. Chapter 11 introduces ad-
vanced displays including 3D holographic display. Chapter 12 presents an
overview of fiber optical networks.
The book is not intended to be encyclopedic and exhaustive. Rather, it
merely reflects current selected interests in optical applications to information
technology. In view of the great number of contributions in this area, we have
not been able to include all of them in this book.
