The IEEE Information Theory Workshop (ITW) covered all topics broadly related to information theory. In addition to its traditional scope, the 2016 edition also focused on the intersections of information theory, machine learning, and compressed sensing. The conference took place at Robinson College, the youngest of the Cambridge colleges founded in 1979, offering modern dedicated conference facilities in a cosy residential setup and easy access to the sights and attractions in central Cambridge that lie within a 10 minutes walk of the college.

We enjoyed having you all in Cambridge on September 11 to 14, 2016! Thank you for attending!
