Six papers were accepted in the IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), which will take place in the historic city of Aachen, Germany, from June 25 to 30, 2017. ISIT is the largest international workshop dedicated to information theory. Each year the most prestigious prize in Information Theory, the Shannon Award, will be announced at ISIT and the winner will present a Shannon Lecture at the following ISIT. It is thus a great success to our centre’s staff (Runyao Duan, Min-Hsiu Hsieh, and Marco Tomamichel) and students (Hao-Chung Cheng, Xin Wang and Wei Xie) to have their works accepted in this workshop. Congratulations to them.
