Coding Theory

From SIAG-AG

Coding theory is a branch of Information Theory that comes as an answer to the problem of reliable communication over noisy networks. The session focuses on the algebraic aspect of it and divides in two main parts:

• Network coding, concerning message transmission from multiple sources to multiple sinks. This part of the session focuses on algebraic constructions and bounds for subspace codes for communication over multicast networks.

• Algebraic coding theory, dealing with communication over noisy unicast networks. This part of the session broadly focuses on the mathematical aspects of coding theory.
