SPAWC 2014 and Information Theory Summer School Announcement
A Call for Papers and participation has been issued for the 15th IEEE International Workshop on Signal Processing Advances in Wireless Communications (SPAWC 2014), which will be held in Toronto, Canada, June 22-25, 2014.The workshop is devoted to recent advances in signal processing for wireless communications, networking, and information theory. The technical program features plenary talks as well as invited and contributed poster papers. The Call for Papers can be downloaded from the SPAWC 2014 website.
This year's SPAWC will also be co-located with North American School on Information Theory, June 18-21, 2014, which is a great opportunity for graduate students and post-doctoral fellows.
