- Coding theory and practice
- Communication theory
- Compression
- Cryptography and data security
- Detection and estimation
- Information theory and statistics
- Information theory in networks
- Multi-terminal information theory
- Pattern recognition and learning
- Quantum information theory
- Sequences and complexity
- Shannon theory
- Signal processing
- Source coding
In addition to submitting new results in the above areas, researchers in related fields and researchers working on novel applications of information theory are encouraged to submit contributions. The paper submission deadline is January 7, 2008, with notification of acceptance by March 31, 2008.
