چکیده
I dare say that there is no other IEEE society that is a more purely volunteer society than the Information Theory Society. Our society has no staff, and is basically run out of the back pockets of a large number of dedicated and highly responsible volunteers. Moreover, I believe that there is no other IEEE society in which the principal volunteers are so often the principal technical contributors to its field.

Information Theory is one of those rare scientific fields to which one can assign a definite beginning. The publication in 1948 of Claude E. Shannon’s celebrated paper, “A Mathematical theory of Communication”, marks the birth of Information Theory as clearly as the Declaration of Independence in 1776 marked the birth of a country. This special issue of the Newsletter is part of the IEEE Inform...

Network information theory aims to establish the limits on information fl ow in noisy networks and the coding schemes that achieve these limits. Although a general theory is yet to be developed, several coding schemes and bounds on the capacity have been developed. This article reviews these results with emphasis on two recently developed coding schemes—noisy network coding and compute–forward....

The study of interactive communication (known as communication complexity in the computer science literature) is one of the most important and successful tools for obtaining unconditional lower bounds in computational complexity. Despite its natural connection to classical communication theory, the usage of information theoretic techniques is relatively new within the study of interactive commu...
