Australian
Communications Theory
Workshop 2006
Perth,
February 1-3, 2006
AusCTW 2006 will bring
together Australian researchers in physical
layer communications and related areas. This 2.5-day Workshop provides
an opportunity for researchers and postgraduate students to gather in a
largely informal environment to share ideas, make contacts and foster
collaborative research links. Previous workshops have been immensely
successful in building links and networks between researchers around
the country. This year marks the seventh Australian Communications
Theory Workshop, which will be held in Perth, Western Australia, from
Wednesday, February 1 through Friday, February 3, 2006.
