Welcome to ISITA2016

October 30–November 2, 2016
Monterey, California, USA

The International Symposium on Information Theory and Its Applications (ISITA) is a leading conference on information theory. Since its inception in 1990, ISITA has been an exciting forum for interdisciplinary interaction, gathering leading researchers to discuss topics of common interest in the field of information theory.

In 2016, the biennial ISITA will be held October 30 – November 2 in Monterey, California, USA at the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel.

Monterey sits on the gorgeous California coastline, offering opportunities for hiking, kayaking, whale watching and more. Cannery Row houses an eclectic blend of specialty shops, restaurants and galleries, and hosts the world-class Monterey Bay Aquarium. Monterey is south of San Francisco, and is a 90-minute drive from San Jose. The Monterey Regional Airport has direct flights from six US cities, including San Francisco.
