The 8th International Symposium on Turbo Codes & Iterative Information Processing will be held from Monday, August 18 to Friday, August 22 in Bremen, Germany. The Symposium will be an opportunity to acquire a broad overview of the current status of advanced research in iterative information processing and its application to information theory and digital communications.

All original contributions will be considered, in both theoretical and applied fields. The non-exhaustive list below provides possible topics for paper submissions:

Error correction coding Turbo codes and LDPC codes Bit-interleaved coded modulation Interleaving and labeling Graph codes for compression Joint source-channel coding Coding for storage Coding for secrecy Detection; iterative detection Multi-user and MIMO applications Turbo equalization Synchronization Cooperative communications Iterative processing over networks Applications to wireless and optical Bounds, performance, and convergence Iterative algorithms Bayesian inference and factor graphs Analog decoders Chip applications Applications in bio-informatics Applications in neurosciences Data fusion

The symposium will include regular papers for oral and poster sessions as well as invited papers. Accepted and presented papers will appear in the symposium proceedings as well as on IEEEXplore. We will again have a Best Student Paper Award and a Best Student Poster Presentation Award.
