Fog Computing and Communications: Technology and Economics
This Workshop is the first workshop on fog computing in Hong Kong. Fog computing is advocated to supplement cloud computing. It is more distributed to be closer to end users and hence has shorter latency and response time, which is critical to many applications. The program covers practical Physical-Layer Network Coding (PNC), edge mesh network that enables scalable connectivity and distributed intelligence for IoT, shared fog networks, computation offlloading, etc.
ITCSC - INC Winter School 2016
The ITCSC-INC Winter School is a weeklong series of lectures and academic activities for second and third year undergraduate students from universities across Asia. It takes place in January every year at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
The winter school program combines academic learning, problem solving, and cultural exchange. The lectures, which cover topics in the theory of computation and communications, will be delivered by renowned professors. Besides, there will be a city exploration tour for the participants on the last day of the programme.
Undergraduate students of computer science and electrical engineering from universities across Asia are welcome to apply. Invitations will be sent to a selected number of students based on the quality of your application and budgetary considerations. Should you be invited, ITCSC and INC will cover your round-trip airfare to Hong Kong, your accommodation, and your meals.
The Chinese University of Hong Kong Has Been Named One of the World's Top 10 Research Institutions with the Most Impact on Communications

YEUNG, Professor, Chinese University of Hong Kong, and NING CAI, Professor, Xidian University, “for pioneering contributions to the field of network coding.”
CSCIT 2015 - Croucher Summer Course in Information Theory
The Croucher Summer Course in Information Theory 2015 will be held in Hong Kong, a week before ISIT 2015. The Summer Course will take place at the TY Wong Hall, 5/F., Ho Sin Hang Engineering Building, the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
Young researchers (especially postgraduate students and postdoctoral scholars), particularly in Hong Kong and the East/South Asia region, are encouraged to apply. One can apply for travel grants from both this event, and from ISIT, and these applications will be independently evaluated.

The 2015 IEEE Hong Kong-Taiwan Joint Workshop on Information Theory and Communications
The 2015 IEEE Hong Kong-Taiwan Joint Workshop on Information Theory and Communications will be held on 19-20 January 2015 in Hong Kong to promote exchange between researchers in Hong Kong and Taiwan as well as in the larger Asia-Pacific community in the fields of information theory and communications.
Sino-German Workshop 2014
The workshop aims to create a platform for prominent researchers, primarily from Germany and China, to exchange their latest research results in Network Coding and wireless communications, paving the way for high-impact international collaborations in the near future.
EASIT 2014 - East Asian School of Information Theory
The First East Asian School of Information Theory 2014 will be held in Hong Kong, immediately after ISIT 2014. A city where East meets West, Hong Kong is world-famous for the spectacular skyline and the magnificent night view. The Summer School will take place at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
ITCSC-INC Winter School 2014
ITCSC-INC Winter School 2014 will be held from January 20 - 23, 2014 at The Chinese University of Hong Kong and is co-organized by Institute of Theoretical Computer Science and Communications (ITCSC) and Institute of Network Coding (INC). It is a 4-day programs that will combine academic learning, cultural exchange, and community exploration. It is a great opportunity to find out about Hong Kong's academic environment, meet talented students from across Asia, and explore an interesting city.
