Abstract :
Separating codes, initially introduced to test automaton, has been revived lately in the study of fingerprinting codes, which are used for copyright protection. Separating codes play a significant role in making the fingerprinting scheme secure against coalitions of pirates. In this paper, we provide better bounds on such codes.
