About ten years ago, V.D. Goppa found a surprisingconnection between the theory of algebraic curves over afinite field and error-correcting codes. The aim of themeeting "e;Algebraic Geometry and Coding Theory"e; was to give asurvey on the present state of research in this field andrelated topics. The proceedings contain research papers onseveral aspects of the theory, among them: Codes constructedfrom special curves and from higher-dimensional varieties,Decoding of algebraic geometric codes, Trace codes, Exponen-tial sums, Fast multiplication in finite fields, Asymptoticnumber of points on algebraic curves, Sphere packings.
