Practical Biometrics

Containing a wealth of real world advice and written from an operational perspective, "e;Practical Biometrics"e; examines the many issues raised by the application of biometric technologies to practical situations, with specific regard to wide scale public applications. It acts as a practical guide to implementation, identifying the associated issues around: * Scalability in applications featuring biometric verification techniques* Interoperability, both from a technical and operational perspective* Ethnicity and the associated implications for biometric verification checks* Failure to enroll and other error conditions* User psychology the less obvious, but vitally important aspects of operational performance."e;Practical Biometrics"e; provides an invaluable resource to program managers, application developers, consultants, and other interested in this technology.
