There will be both invited and contributed sessions. Papers for the contributed sessions are solicited, but not limited to, the following areas:
* Coding theory and practice
* Cryptography
* Detection and estimation
* Information theory and statistics
* Multiterminal information theory
* Pattern recognition and learning
* Shannon theory
* Source coding
