The new roadmap on optical communications @IOPPublishing is now out!! iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

IEEE JSAC has a Call for Papers on optical communication and networking and we have asked the team of Guest Editors to provide their perspective on the state of research in this area of communications.

#Quantum #LDPC codes decoded with belief propagation don't need to perform poorly. If we use a modified ensemble decoder and an adapted #QLDPC code design, we can mitigate the effects of unavoidable short cycles. #QEC #ErrorCorrection

Call for Papers: IEEE VCC 2023
This brand-new conference supports researchers, professionals, and scholars in communications who may be unable to travel with a virtual platform to present their work.
Submit your paper by 1 Sept: bit.ly/3qbvsla

It's quite something that the world's top scientists put out a synthesis report that essentially says civilization as we know it will end unless the world comes together to stop rapidly expanding the fossil fuel industry but to instead rapidly end it, and almost no one cares
Very happy to have been elevated to the grade of #IEEE #Fellow by @IEEEorg . Thanks and appreciation go to all my collaborators and students from @BellLabs and @KITKarlsruhe without whom I couldn‘t have made these contributions!
Fellow Friday is back! We will be highlighting #Photonics society members who have been elevated to the grade #IEEE #Fellow. Our first feature is @LSchmalen of @KITKarlsruhe for contributions to the design of error correction and modulation techniques for #opticalnetworks.

The Shannon award to Rudiger Urbanke is both terrific news and a long overdue recognition to one of the most influential information and coding theorists of the last quarter century. 1/n

Pls RT. Looking for clever, creative, capable, experimentally-focused #postdocs to work on next-generation, #ultrawideband, high-speed, #machinelearning and DSP enabled optical communications systems & networks @transnet_pgm @ucleeenews

Dear paper writers, consider using \𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘢𝘨𝘦[𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗿𝗲𝗳=𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗲]{𝘩𝘺𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘧} instead of simply \𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘢𝘨𝘦{𝘩𝘺𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘧} to make it easier for a reader to jump to the references and back.
A must read. This book blew my mind when I first read it.
Replying to @thomasahle
Definitely check out "The Probabilistic Method" by Joel Spencer and Noga Alon. The first four chapters really give a nice idea of the algorithmic stuff you can do with probability. The remaining chapters show you how wide the field is. Every proof is "from the book".

My 13-year-old is making jello tuna salad from a cookbook (for want of a better word) that my parents had, in the 1960s.
Ingredients include mayonnaise, tuna, onions, olives, pimentos, all suspended in…lime Jello.
