A set X ⊆ ∑** of pictures is a code if every picture over ∑ is tilable in at most one way with pictures in X. The definition of strong prefix code is introduced and it is proved that the corresponding family of finite strong prefix codes is decidable and it has a polynomial time decoding algorithm. Maximality for finite strong prefix codes is also considered. Given a strong prefix code, it is proved that there exists a unique maximal strong prefix code that contains it and that has a minimal size. The notion of completeness is also investigated in relation to maximality. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
