The 8th Van der Meulen Seminar was held on December 13, 2019

Katalin Marton was a giant of our field. She also made remarkable contributions to measure concentration with applications to probability theory and ergodic theory. She received the Shannon Award and was the only woman to do so.

We have open vacancies for PhD students and Postdocs in communication theory and the application of machine learning in reliable communications at the Communications Engineering Lab (CEL, Prof. Laurent Schmalen) at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in Germany.

The 11th Annual Non-Volatile Memories Workshop (NVMW 2020) provides a unique showcase for outstanding research on solid state, non-volatile memories, including devices, error coding, architectures, systems, and applications. Submissions to the workshops are 2-page extended abstracts. They are due December 11th, 2019.

Lalitha Sankar and Oliver Kosut at Arizona State University are looking for a postdoc to work on privacy and fairness in the context of learning.

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of California, Irvine invites applications for an Assistant (tenure-track) or Associate/Full Professor (tenured) position.

We are looking for postdocs at EURECOM who have worked on coded caching and/or distributed computing. Planned research includes coded caching, distributed computing, data shuffling, as well as a variety of other applications in the area of communications and computing. The duration can be 1.5, or up to 3-4 years.

Jørn Justesen, a well-known expert in coding theory, communications, and data compression, passed away on October 27, 2019 in Washington, DC, USA at the age of 75. His notable results include the construction of low-complexity, asymptotically good error-correcting codes (1972), a discovery of fast decoding algorithms for Reed-Solomon and algebraic-geometric codes, as well as research into construction and properties of convolutional codes.

Shannon Award winner Elwyn Berlekamp passed away on April 9, 2019 at the age of 78.
