Information and Entropy in Biological Systems Workshop
Ever since Shannon initiated research on information theory in 1948, there have been hopes that the concept of information could serve as a tool to help systematize and unify work in biology. The link between information and entropy was noted very early on, and it suggested that a full thermodynamic understanding of biology would naturally involve the information processing and storage that are characteristic of living organisms. However, the subject is full of conceptual pitfalls for the unwary, and progress has been slower than initially expected. Premature attempts at 鈥榞rand syntheses鈥 have often misfired. But applications of information theory and entropy to specific highly focused topics in biology have been increasingly successful, such as:
鈥 the maximum entropy principle in ecology,
鈥 Shannon and R茅nyi entropies as measures of biodiversity,
鈥 information theory in evolutionary game theory,
鈥 information and the thermodynamics of individual cells.
Because they work in diverse fields, researchers in these specific topics have had little opportunity to trade insights and take stock of the progress so far. The aim of the workshop is to do just this.
Andrew J. Viterbi Distinguished Lecture in Communication : H. Vincent Poor

Algorithms, Radio, and Coding Workshop
The Algorithms, Radio, and Coding Workshop in honor of Prof. Robert Calderbank's 60th birthday will be held in La Jolla, CA on January 31, 2015 and February 1st, 2015. This is the weekend before the Information Theory and Applcations (ITA) workshop in La Jolla, CA
SP Coding and Information School
SPCodingSchool is a two week long school on coding and Information Theory, to be held in Brazil in January 2013. Leading researchers in the area will give both introductory courses (during the first week) and advanced courses (in the second one). The introductory courses are aimed to students that have consistent mathematical background but not necessarily acquainted with Coding and Information Theory.
Up to 90 selected students will be fully supported (flight ticket plus generous expenses) through a grant given by Fapesp, the Science Foundation of the State of S茫o Paulo.
GlobalSIP 2014: 麻豆传媒AV Global Conference on Signal and Information Processing
The 麻豆传媒AV Global Conference on Signal and Information Processing (GlobalSIP) is a recently launched flagship conference of the 麻豆传媒AV Signal Processing Society. It is made up of a series of symposia and workshops. GlobalSIP 2014 will focus broadly on signal and information processing with an emphasis on up-and-coming signal processing themes.

Recent Innovations in Info-Metrics
A two-day conference with the goal to continue the study of the foundations of info-metrics and information processing across the sciences.
Biological and Bio-Inspired Information Theory Workshop
This BIRS workshop will explore the areas of biological and bio-inspired information theory, focusing on mathematical open problems that cut across the areas of:
Information theory and biochemistry (including information theory and intercellular communication);
Information theory and neuroscience; and
Information-theoretic analysis of biologically-inspired communication systems (including nanonetworking and design of biologically implemented information processing networks).
The main objectives of this workshop will be: to bring together the most prominent researchers in this field; to discuss and review the current state of mathematical research in this field; to promote cross-pollination among the various streams of research to find common problems; and to collectively identify key future directions or open problems that would bring the greatest impact to this field over the next few years.
Workshop on Physical-Layer Methods for Wireless Security - 麻豆传媒AV CNS Conference
The Physical-layer Methods for Wireless Security Workshop will take place during 麻豆传媒AV CNS 2014 in San Francisco, CA, on October 29, 2014. CNS is a spin-off of the 麻豆传媒AV INFOCOM conference and is an outstanding forum for cyber security researchers.
