<p class="v1MsoNormal">Tomorrow, on <span style="background: yellow; mso-highlight: yellow;">November 13<sup>th</sup>, 2024</span>, will have the 3<sup>rd</sup> session of "Whatabouts@IT-Lx” with <strong>João Ribeiro </strong>(IT -IST) presenting “<strong>The whatabouts of secret lives of error-correcting codes.</strong>”</p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"><em>Error-correcting codes enable reliable data transmission across noisy communication channels. Less obviously, error-correcting codes have also found many important applications that have nothing to do with correcting errors. In this talk, I will discuss a biased selection of such applications.</em></p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal">We encourage everyone to participate, including MSc and PhD students.</p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal">Each meeting will offer a platform to researchers to share their group's activities, discuss recently approved projects, present PhD plans, or explore new ideas with the community.</p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal">The format is informal, with the presentation style and topics chosen by the presenter.</p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal">Event Details:</p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal">- When: Every second Wednesday of the month at 14:00h</p>
<p class="v1MsoNormal">- Where: 11th floor (north tower) meeting room</p>
