Abstract
Coding Theory naturally lies at the intersection of a large number of disciplines in pure and applied mathematics. A multitude of methods and means has been designed to construct, analyze, and decode the resulting codes for communication. This has suggested to bring together researchers in a variety of disciplines within Mathematics, Computer Science, and Electrical Engineering, in order to cross-fertilize generation of new ideas and force global advancement of the field. Areas to be covered are Network Coding, Subspace Designs, General Algebraic Coding Theory, Distributed Storage and Private Information Retrieval (PIR), as well as Code-Based Cryptography.
