The Organising Committee cordially invites you to participate in the 2021 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT 2021), 11-16 July 2021, Melbourne, Australia. ISIT was last held in Australia in 2005, in Adelaide. The ISIT is the premier international conference series dedicated to the advancement of information theory and related areas. It brings together an international community of researchers and practitioners each year to present and discuss new research results and perspectives on future developments relevant to all areas of information theory, including big data analytics, source and channel coding, communication theory and systems, cryptography and security, detection and estimation, emerging applications, networks, network coding, information theory, signal processing, and statistical/machine learning. Hosted by the IEEE Information Theory Society, ISIT 2021 will feature contributed papers, the Shannon lecture and plenary talks, as well as tutorial sessions.  

The Symposium is currently scheduled to run at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre from Monday 12 to Friday 16 July. Pre-symposium tutorials will be held on Sunday 11 July. The Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre is situated on Melbourne’s iconic Yarra River and is centrally located in Melbourne. It is within walking distance to a wide variety of accommodation, parks, cafes and restaurants. In case of a fully online or hybrid event, adjustments will be made to deliver a cutting-edge scholarly and networking experience to all participants regardless of their mode of participation. The Organising Committee looks forward to your scholarly contributions and participation in ISIT 2021.
