The banquet format pro- vided a lot of opportunities for interaction. After dinner, the recipient of the 2003 Shannon Award was announced: Prof. Lloyd R. Welch. Prof. Welch will give his Shannon Lecture at the 2003 ISIT in Yo- kohama. Nusha Wyner, wife of the late Aaron Wyner, received a bronze plaque commemorating the June 2002 special issue of IEEE Transactions on Information Theory dedicated to her husband. At the conclusion of the banquet, Prof. Hideki Imai welcomed everyone to participate in the next ISIT that will be held in Yokohama, Japan, in summer 2003. The symposium came to an end on Friday afternoon. Several of the attendants expressed their compliments to the orga- nizers for a successful, enjoyable and well organized conference.

Attendees of the 2002 ISIT enjoy the historical village of Gruyere with the mountain le Moleson in the background. This year’s best paper award has been shared by M.G. Luby, M. Mitzenmacher, M.A. Shokrollahi and D.A. Spielman and by T.J. Richardson and R.L. Urbanke. On Wednesday afternoon, no technical session was held. Instead, a wide range of excursions in the surroundings of Lausanne had been organized, namely a visit to the histori- cal town of Gruyere with its medieval village, a visit to the 12th century castle of Chillon, a trip to Gstaad on the GoldenPass Panoramic Train, and hiking in the mountains at Les Diablerets and an ascension to Rochers-de-Naye. This year’s Shannon Lecture was given by Prof. Toby Berger from Cornell University (USA) on Thursday morn- ing, entitled `Living Information Theory’. He introduced the audience to the way neurons communicate and to the studies undertaken in the quest to understand the way na- ture ensures efficient communication. He ended his pre- sentation on the tones of his harmonica. The cocktail banquet dinner was held on the premises of the Olympic Museum.

  • Reed-Solomon Encoding and Decoding
    Bachelor's Thesis Degree Programme in Information Technology 2011 León van de Pavert REED-SOLOMON ENCODING AND DECODING A Visual Representation i Bachelor's Thesis | Abstract Turku University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Information Technology Spring 2011 | 37 pages Instructor: Hazem Al-Bermanei León van de Pavert REED-SOLOMON ENCODING AND DECODING The capacity of a binary channel is increased by adding extra bits to this data. This improves the quality of digital data. The process of adding redundant bits is known as channel encod- ing. In many situations, errors are not distributed at random but occur in bursts. For example, scratches, dust or fingerprints on a compact disc (CD) introduce errors on neighbouring data bits. Cross-interleaved Reed-Solomon codes (CIRC) are particularly well-suited for detection and correction of burst errors and erasures. Interleaving redistributes the data over many blocks of code. The double encoding has the first code declaring erasures. The second code corrects them. The purpose of this thesis is to present Reed-Solomon error correction codes in relation to burst errors. In particular, this thesis visualises the mechanism of cross-interleaving and its ability to allow for detection and correction of burst errors. KEYWORDS: Coding theory, Reed-Solomon code, burst errors, cross-interleaving, compact disc ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It is a pleasure to thank those who supported me making this thesis possible. I am thankful to my supervisor, Hazem Al-Bermanei, whose intricate know- ledge of coding theory inspired me, and whose lectures, encouragement, and support enabled me to develop an understanding of this subject.

Over the past few years, both the city’s authorities and local business owners have worked hard to capitalise on Lausanne’s incredible shorefront location next to one of the biggest and cleanest lakes in Europe. This year, for example has seen a new beach facility developed in Bellerive outside the Jetée de la Compagnie bar. Another summer development that’s got foodies jumping for joy is a myriad of new artisan ice cream kiosks, many of which are manned by actual Italians with incredibly tasty, closely-guarded recipes. We catch up with a few Lausanne locals, who tip you off on their favourite spots for ice cream (p. 15). Summer is also the season for cultural events, not least the ever-popular Festival de la Cité – organiser Myriam Kridi tells us more later in the issue. The other date to save for this year is the quinquennial Lausanne Jardins event (p. 47). Around 20 landscape projects will be dotted along a route crossing the city from east to west, and will remain in place until 12 October.

  • Après Un Cours D'initiation À L'ecole Des Arts Appliqués De Vevey
    Né en 1963 à Lausanne (Switzerland) Après un cours d’initiation à l’Ecole des Arts Appliqués de Vevey (1979-1980), il suit une formation de photographe (1980-1984) à Lausanne. Photographe indépendant depuis 1985, il fait une expérience radiophonique à la RTS, Espace 2 en 1993 et enseigne ponctuellement de 1991 à 1996 à l’ECAL. À partir de 1996 il oriente son activité essentiellement vers une recherche personnelle et entreprend les séries « Photographies apocryphes », « Évènements » et « Nues » puis est mandaté par Expo.02 en 2001 pour réaliser les images du pavillon « Le premier regard » à Yverdon. Il enseigne la photographie à l’ESAA de Vevey de 2003 à 2005 et, depuis 2003, au CFPArts de Genève. Le travail d’Olivier Christinat a fait l’objet de nombreuses expositions en Europe, mais aussi au Japon et aux Etats-Unis. En 2004, il est sélectionné par la SSR SRG idée suisse pour faire partie des 28 photographes présentés dans "Photo-Suisse", production d'envergure internationale ayant donné lieu à une série de documentaires sur les artistes, une publication et une exposition itinérante à travers le monde. En 2010, Olivier Christinat réoriente son travail hors de l’atelier et de la mise en scène, il débute les séries « Leçon de paysage », « Autre leçon de paysage », « Lignes de fuite » et « Nouveaux Souvenirs »… Il a notamment remporté le Rado Star Prize en 2013 dans le cadre des Journées Photographiques de Bienne et participé à l’exposition du Musée de l’Elysée « Un autre regard sur Paléo » en 2015. Un livre "Nouveaux souvenirs" rassemblant son travail photographique depuis 2010 est paru aux éditions art&fiction en 2017.
