The DIMACS Workshop on Network Information Theory will focus on the area of
efficient and reliable communication in multi-terminal settings. This field
has recently attracted renewed attention because of key developments that
have spawned a rich set of challenging research problems. Applications such
as wireless cellular and LAN data services, ad hoc networks and sensor
networks should benefit from these developments. The aim of the workshop is
to achieve a better understanding of the underlying information theoretic
problems and their solutions.
The workshop topics will include, but are not limited to, the following
areas:
Large communication networks
analysis, design, asymptotics
Multi-terminal capacity/coding
relays, multi-access, random access
