1999 IEEE Information Theory and Communications Workshop and 1999 Information and Networking Workshop, Kruger National Park, South Africa,6/20-25/99 & Metsovo, Greece, 6/27-7/1/99

IEEE信息论研讨会每年在美国或国外举行。 1999年将在国外举办两次讲习班。第一届会议将于1999年6月20日至25日在南非克鲁格国家公园举行，主题是信息理论与通信。 第二届是信息理论和网络领域的研讨会，将于1999年6月27日至7月1日在希腊的梅佐沃举行。 这两个讲习班的组织者正在协调安排，以便所有感兴趣的与会者都能参加这两个活动，在这两个讲习班上提交的论文对国家科学基金会感兴趣的研究和应用特别重要。 这两个研讨会的内容包括：信息理论与通信：识别;密码学与通信安全;信源编码理论与技术;高速网络的建模与性能;多用户通信;衰落信道的编码与调制;频谱通信理论与技术;信息理论与编码的新成果;信息理论与网络：网络香农信息理论;信源编码;信息论和排队;网络基础;密码学和安全;编码和通信;信息论在多媒体中的作用;信息论在网络中的作用;网络定价。

The IEEE Information Theory Workshop in any specific area is held annually either in the United States of America or abroad. In l999, there will be two workshops to be held abroad. The first one is in the area of information theory and communications and will be held in Kruger National Park, South Africa, June 20-25, l999. The second one is in the area of information theory and networking and will be held in Metsovo, Greece June 27-July 1, l999. The organizers of both workshops are coordinating their arrangements such that all interested participants will be able to attend both events.Papers presented in these twin workshops will be of particular importance to research and applications of interest to the National Science Foundation. The areas covered in these twin workshops are:Information Theory and Communications: Identification; Cryptology and communications security; Source coding theory and techniques; Modeling and performance of high speed networks; Multi-user communications; Coding and modulation for fading channels; Spread-spectrum communication theory and techniques; New results in information theory and coding.Information Theory and networking: Network Shannon information theory; Source coding; Information theory and queuing; Fundamentals of networks; Cryptography and security; Coding and communications; Role of information theory in multimedia; Role of information theory in networking; Pricing in networks.
