By the end of the book the reader should be able to play an educated role in a smart card related project, even to programming a card application. This book is designed as a textbook for graduate level students in computer science. It is also as an invaluable post-graduate level reference for professionals and researchers. This volume offers insight into benefits and pitfalls of diverse industry, government, financial and logistics aspects while providing a sufficient level of technical detail to support technologists, information security specialists, engineers and researchers. Review “This book provides a good overview of the most important aspects of smart cards. It maintains a near-consistent level of detail and technical depth across the topics, and includes many references for readers who need more than a solid introduction. It could be extended with other applications, for example, toll payment systems and the implantation of smart cards in animals and humans.” (A.
