We consider the problem of slotted asynchronous coded communication, where in each time frame (slot), the transmitter is either silent or transmits a codeword from a given (randomly selected) codebook. The task of the decoder is to decide…

We consider lossy source coding when side information affecting the distortion measure may be available at the encoder, decoder, both, or neither. For example, such distortion side information can model reliabilities for noisy measurements,…

We consider a secure source coding problem with side information (S.I.) at the decoder and the eavesdropper. The encoder has a source that it wishes to describe with limited distortion through a rate limited link to a legitimate decoder.…
