Abstract:
Since Shannon\'s 1948 magna carta of the information age, communication engineers have developed efficient point-to-point codes that achieve the fundamental limits predicted by Shannon. The advent of the Internet and wireless communication, and the ever-increasing appetite for ubiquitous connectivity present a new set of challenges for network communication that involves cooperation and competition among multiple users. Network information theory aims to develop new coding techniques to meet these challenges.
My talk will present a few canonical examples that highlight these challenges and solutions from network information theory. Throughout, I will discuss what remains to be solved, both in theory and in practice. Looking forward, the problem of network communication in general is far from solved and there are many remaining challenges that require breakthroughs in science and engineering. As the joke goes, LTE may well stand for \"long-term employment\" for communication engineers.
