Registration
Registration will open in late April. The following registration fees are indicative and may be slightly adjusted when registration opens as we finalise the conference costs and likely participant numbers:| Early Registration fees (by 30 June) | Residential | Non-Residential | ||
| IEEE and IT Society Member | £580 | £380 | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IEEE member (non ITSoc) | £680 | £480 | ||
| non-member | £700 | £500 | ||
| Student IEEE ITSoc Member | £430 | £230 | ||
| Student non-member | £530 | £330 |
The non-residential fee includes:
- Welcome reception on 11 September
- Welcome package
- Access to online proceedings (USB proceedings only upon request)
- Lunches on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
- All coffee/tea breaks
- Walking and punting excursion on 12 September
- Conference dinner at Trinity College on 13 September
- Accommodation at Robinson college for 3 nights, 11 to 14 September (modern comfortable rooms with internet access)
- Breakfast on 12,13 and 14 September
- Please note that the residential option is a package and we cannot accommodate requests for longer or shorter stays. You may be able to book a longer stay through the Robinson College website. For shorter stays, note that the prices we obtained for you are very competitive and you will be hard-pressed finding less expensive options elsewhere in Cambridge, so even if you pay for 3 nights and stay only 2 booking the package remains a good option.
IEEE and IEEE Information Theory Society member fees
It is a requirement for IEEE conferences to apply differentiated participation fees for members and student members. We cannot in general make any exceptions to this rule, and membership status will be checked at registration time to ensure compliance. However, since the technical program for ITW 2016 is targeted towards the interface between Information Theory and related disciplines (Statistics, Machine Learning, Sparsity, Compressed Sensing and Radar), we are prepared to grant reduced member's fees for participants fulfilling the following description:- Active member of the research community in one of the related disciplines we are targeting
- No prior activity within the information theory community.
If you believe you fit this description, please contact the general chairs prior to registration to request a reduced registration fee. The chairs will grant reductions on a case-by-case basis taking IEEE and society interest into account. Their decision is final and cannot be appealed. Please note that we will not grant reduced fees to students as the IEEE is particularly keen for students to become members, and the student membership fees are very good value.
