Logistics 2011 School to be held in Austin on UT Austin campus Co-organized by Texas A&M and UT Austin Dates: May th 2011 (Memorial day weekend) Reasons: Only one day (Friday) overlaps with working day Austin turns into an oven June-Sept Applications due: March 12 th 2011 Decisions: March 20 th 2011 Decisions: March 20 th 2011 Registration by April 15 th 2011 Website: theory

2010 School At USC from August 5-8, Six 2-hour lecturers over 3½ days by 6 speakers

Format in 2011 We plan to have 5 speakers: 2 long (3 hour lectures): Core IT and Coding 3 medium (2 hour lectures): Applications and Interdisciplinary Padovani Lecturer: Rich Baraniuk Other Speakers: Bob Gray, Sanjoy Mitter, Emre Telatar Last invitation: Ingrid Daubechies (still pending, your help appreciated) School in the process of being registered with IEEE as a conference (approval awaiting today’s meeting outcome) UT dorm has no contract: Dorms this year will act like hotel registration: Students register with dorm and provide credit card backup. If no show (15-day cancellation), student is fined. Students post-billed once checkout. Big advantage: We never deal with student money. Dorm bill adjustment will take care of any leftover money.

Fundraising We currently have 10 K from UT and A&M (5K each) In previous years: 2008: $39k (ITSOC, DARPA, Univ.; 101 students) 2009: $58K (ITSOC, DARPA/ARO, NSF, Univ.; 141 students) 2010: $61K (ITSOC, DARPA/ARO, NSF, Univ.; 178 students) We have approached NSF and ARO We plan to approach companies as well: NI, Huawei, Motorola

Request for Funds We respectfully ask for the previous years’ allocation from the ITSOC Motion: that the ITSOC support the 2011 School of Information Theory with a grant of $20k
