ISIT 2013 - ISIT 2013 : 2013 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory

The 2013 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory will be held in Istanbul, Turkey, from Sunday July 7th through Friday July 12th, 2013. Istanbul is the largest city in Turkey and the cultural, economic, and financial center of the country. The city is a bridge between two continents as well as between cultures and traditions.

Interested authors are encouraged to submit previously unpublished contributions from a broad range of topics related to information theory, including (but not limited to) the following areas:
Coding theory and practice Communication theory
Compression Cryptography and data security
Detection and estimation Information theory and statistics
Information theory in networks Multi-terminal information theory
Pattern recognition and learning Quantum information theory
Sequences and complexity Shannon theory
Signal processing Source coding
Researchers working on novel applications of information theory are especially encouraged to submit original findings. Submitted papers should be of sufficient detail for review by experts in the field.
