In Memoriam: Ralf Kötter
This winter, the information theory community lost one of its giants: Ralf Kötter passed away in Munich, Germany, in the early morning hours of February 2, 2009. During the past 15 years, his seminal contributions have transformed our field, and his work will surely remain a source of inspiration for years to come. Those of us who have had the privilege to know Ralf personally will cherish the memory of a towering intellect, with a big heart and a gentle soul.
