Abstract

The classical theory of constrained-channel coding deals with the following questions: given two languages representing a source and a channel, is it possible to encode source messages to channel messages, and how to realize encoding and decoding by simple algorithms, most often transducers. The answers to this kind of questions are based on the notion of entropy. In the current paper, the questions and the results of the classical theory are lifted to timed languages. Using the notion of entropy of timed languages introduced by Asarin and Degorre, the question of timed coding is stated and solved in several settings.
