The main focus of the conference will be algebraic methods in information theory without excluding other areas of the discipline. We welcome researchers working on the fundamentals on information theory as well as questions of implementation.

Previous meetings have been in Volos (Greece), Taormina (Italy), Porto (Portugal), Lake Tahoe, California (USA), Punta del Este (Uruguay), etc.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Information and coding theory in networks
  • Graph-based codes and iterative decoding
  • Information- and coding-theoretic aspects of secure communications
  • Algebraic codes and sequences

There will be invited sessions on:

Algebraic codes and sequences Organizer: Patrick Sole
LDPC codes Organizers: Simon Litsyn, David Burshtein
Quantum information processing Organizer: Jean-Pierre Tillich
Channel uncertainty
- Point-to-point communication
- Network communication
Organizers: Navin Kashyap, Michael Langberg
Polar codes Organizer: Emre Telatar
Coding and information-theoretic methods in cryptography Organizer: Gerard Cohen


Call for Papers

We invite participants to submit an extended abstract of at most 5 pages for consideration of presentation and publication. All papers must be original, not published elsewhere, and report on recent significant achievements, challenges or work in progress.
All submissions are subject to a peer-review process to ensure that the high standard of the conference be maintained.

All papers should be submitted through the EasyChair conference management system. To enter the system you will need an EasyChair account. (Those who do not have an EasyChair account will need to create one. The EasyChair webpage provides all the information how to create an account.)

Authors should use LaTeX to format their final manuscripts, using the IEEEtran class (conference mode).

Deadline for submissions: 1 April, 2010.
Notification of decision: 4 June, 2010.

The conference proceedings will be published by IEEE Xplore.
