项目摘要

The IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT) is the premier international conference on information theory, the scientific discipline that studies the mathematical foundations of efficient, reliable, and secure communications, e.g., for telephony, television, wireless, optical, and data storage systems. It has been promoted under the umbrella of the IEEE Information Theory Society (ITSoc) since 1954, originally every two years and annually since 2000. Recent editions of the ISIT have had around 1000 paper submissions with 600 papers accepted and 850 participants including 350 students who benefit from the excellent learning and networking opportunity that ISIT provides. This award supports the participation of US-based students in ISIT 2024, which will be held in Athens, Greece from July 7-12, 2024. Participation at this conference will enhance the research experiences for students and provide increased opportunities for new collaborations.Students form an integral part of the Information Theory community, and the IEEE ISIT Conference continues to promote student participation through the ISIT Jack Kiel Wolf Best Student Paper Award, the creation of the ISIT tutorial series, and the Information Theory Society Student Committee. Students comprise about one-third of the participants at ISIT, and the travel funds offered through this award will support the attendance at the 2024 ISIT by students enrolled in a graduate or undergraduate program in the United States and whose papers have been accepted for presentation.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

IEEE 国际信息论研讨会 (ISIT) 是信息论领域的顶级国际会议，信息论是一门研究高效、可靠和安全通信（例如电话、电视、无线、光学和数据存储）的数学基础的科学学科系统。自 1954 年以来，它一直在 IEEE 信息理论协会 (ITSoc) 的支持下推广，最初每两年一次，自 2000 年起每年一次。ISIT 的最新版本已收到约 1000 篇论文提交，其中 600 篇论文被接受，共有 850 名参与者，其中包括 350 名学生受益于 ISIT 提供的优秀学习和交流机会。该奖项支持美国学生参加 ISIT 2024，该会议将于 2024 年 7 月 7 日至 12 日在希腊雅典举行。参加本次会议将增强学生的研究经验，并提供更多新合作的机会。学生IEEE ISIT 会议已成为信息论界不可或缺的一部分，通过 ISIT Jack Kiel Wolf 最佳学生论文奖、ISIT 教程系列的创建以及信息论，继续促进学生的参与社团学生委员会。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且论文已被接受发表的学生参加 2024 年 ISIT。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
