2012 European School of Information Theory

2012 European School of Information Theory
The 2012 IEEE European School of Information Theory took place in Antalya, Turkey between the 16th and the 20th of April, 2012.

The event, organized jointly by CTTC (Spain), TUM (Germany) and Bahcesehir University (Turkey), will offer graduate students and young researchers the opportunity to learn from experts in information theory through half-day tutorials, as well as the chance to present and discuss their own ongoing work.

This is the 12th information theory school in Europe, and we again have a distinguished list of speakers. This year's instructors and tentative lecture titles are:
 
  • Frans Willems (Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands): Introduction to Universal Source Coding and Biometrics
  • Sennur Ulukus (University of Maryland, USA): Information Theoretic Security
  • Meir Feder (Tel Aviv University, Israel): Efficient Lattice Codes
  • Alex Dimakis (University of Southern California, USA): Network Coding for Distributed Storage
  • Michael Gastpar (UC Berkeley, USA and EPFL, Switzerland): Algebraic Structure in Network Information Theory
The IEEE Information Theory Society is the main sponsor of the 2012 European School of Information Theory. 
 
General Chairs: Deniz Gunduz (CTTC), Gerhard Kramer (TUM)
 
Local Organization Chair: Alkan Soysal (Bahcesehir University)
