- Venkatesan Guruswami , List error-correction with information-theoretically minimal redundancy
- Camilla Hollanti , Algebraic lattices and applications to communications
- Yuval Ishai , The complexity of information-theoretic secure computation
- Yingbin Liang , Information theoretic security and its applications
- Bobak Nazer , Compute-and-Forward: an explicit link between finite field and Gaussian interference networks
- Rüdiger Urbanke , Spatial Coupling -- What is it, why does it work, and what are the open challenges?
Abstracts of the talks are available here .
Walking tour will take place on Wednesday, 14:30-16:30.
The registration and information desk will be open on Sunday between 17:00-20:00 . It will also be open during most of the lectures and poster sessions (see the attached schedule for details).
The organizers, similar to previous years, estimate that the effort in participation in the school corresponds to 2 ECTS. Each student needs to confirm with his/her own doctoral program whether those ECTS can be officially granted.
Poster sessions
Important note
All participants are strongly encouraged to present a poster about their research. For COST Action grant awardee, this requirement is mandatory .
