"Beyond IID in Information Theory 4" will be held 18-22 July 2016 in
Barcelona, at the Institut d'Estudis Catalans.
"Beyond IID in Information Theory" started as a workshop in Cambridge
three years ago, organised by Nilanjana Datta and Renato Renner as a
forum for the growing interest in information theoretic problems and
techniques beyond the strict asymptotic limit, and aimed at bringing
together researchers from a range of different backgrounds, ranging
from coding theory, Shannon theory in the finite block length regime,
one-shot information theory, cryptography, quantum information, all
the way to quantum thermodynamics and other resource theories.
For more information, including the list of speakers and the programme,
both in the process of taking shape, please visit the workshop website

All participants are required to register; there may also be a small fee
(of the order of 20 Euros) to contribute to the coffee breaks.
