Welcome to the Bertinoro Workshop on Communications and Coding (BCC) 2016!

The Department of Electrical, Electronic, and Information Engineering 'Guglielmo Marconi' at the University of Bologna and the TUM Chair of Communications Engineering (LNT) are organizing a 2016 Bertinoro Workshop on Communications and Coding (BCC 2016). The workshop will be held at the Centro Residenziale Universitario di Bertinoro on May 19 and 20, 2016.

We look forward to seeing you in Bertinoro!
