Foundations of Energy Harvesting and Energy Cooperating Communications by Prof Aylin Yener Wireless communication networks composed of devices that can harvest energy from nature will lead to the green future of wireless, as energy harvesting offers the possibility of perpetual network operation without adverse effects on the environment. By developing effective and robust communication [...]

he talk is a repeat of the Shannon Lecture given at ISIT2018 on June 20, 2018, in Vail, USA. It reflects on some of the author's encounters with information theory in his application-oriented engineering career.

As part of this technical talk, the speaker explores neural network implementations to solve the Markov Decision Process problem (MDP) and show that success is strongly tied to the particular implementation and the design of the right metric as informed by our analytical work. Our infinite horizon solutions are shown to outperform recent strategies in the finite horizon case. We make connections to key information theoretic quantities that have been previously considered and provide numerical results.

This technical talk describes how cloud based wireless networks named also as Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs) are emerging as appealing architectures for next-generation wireless/cellular systems.

This talk will consider the problem of Secure Distributed Matrix Multiplication (SDMM) in which a user wishes to compute the product of two matrices using the assistance of honest but curious workers.

The fifth London Symposium of Information Theory (LSIT) will be held on 30 and 31 May 2019 at King's College London. This will be a two-day event, with the first day devoted to exploring the intersection of machine learning and information theory and the second day dedicated to novel applications of information theory.

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) is a brand-new, promising but little understood technology that has the potential of fundamentally changing how wireless networks are designed today. This talk will will discuss the potential of RISs in 6G wireless networks.

In this talk, recent new bounds on the reliability function of the so-called typewriter channels will be presented, which represent the prototypical example of channels with a positive zero-error capacity.

This meeting is aimed at non-lattice approaches to post-quantum cryptography. It will consist of several talks on related topics, with a format aimed at encouraging interaction.

A symposium over Video Teleconference to bring together government industry and academia in the field of wireless communications, networking and information theory, to share latest research, technology and development in the field.
