2016 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory Student Travel Support

IEEE信息理论国际研讨会（ISIT）是信息理论的首要国际会议，研究可靠通信的数学基础的科学学科，无论是通过电话，电视，无线或光学系统，以及数据存储的基本限制，如CD，DVD，闪存驱动器或其他半导体介质。 该系列研讨会自1954年以来一直运行，最初每两年一次，自2000年以来每年一次。学生形成了信息理论社区的一个组成部分，IEEE信息理论学会继续促进学生参与，包括ISIT杰克基尔沃尔夫最佳学生论文奖，ISIT教程系列的创建，以及信息理论学会学生委员会。 近年来，学生约占ISIT参与者的三分之一，通过该奖项提供的旅行资金将支持在美国就读研究生或本科课程的学生参加2016年ISIT，其论文已被接受提交。

The IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT) is the premier international conference in information theory, the scientific discipline that studies the mathematical foundations of reliable communications, whether by telephony, television, wireless or optical systems, and the fundamental limits of data storage, such as CDs, DVDs, flash drives, or other semiconductor media. The symposium series has run since 1954, originally every two years, and yearly since 2000.Students form an integral part of the Information Theory community, and the IEEE Information Theory Society continues to promote student participation, including the ISIT Jack Kiel Wolf Best Student Paper Award, the creation of the ISIT tutorial series, and the Information Theory Society Student Committee. In recent years, students comprise about one-third of the participants to ISIT, and the travel funds offered through this award will support the attendance at the 2016 ISIT by students enrolled in a graduate or undergraduate program in the United States and whose papers have been accepted for presentation.
