Abstract
Traditional information theory and communication theory assume that decoders are noiseless and operate without transient or permanent faults. Decoders are also traditionally assumed to be unconstrained in physical resources like materiel, memory, and energy. This thesis studies how constraining reliability and resources in the decoder limits the performance of communication systems. Five communication problems are investigated. Broadly speaking these are communication using decoders that are wiring cost-limited, that are memory-limited, that are noisy, that fail catastrophically,
