NEWCOM Breaking News
News from the Executive Board
As already most of you know, Prof. Andreas Polydoros (IASA) left in March the NEWCOM++ Executive Board.
We all thank him for his precious contribution in terms of ideas and support given to the NoE. In the meantime we are glad to introduce Prof. Hanna Bogucka (PUT), who, according to the General Assembly decision, is restoring the EB.
Congratulations Hanna!
Many thanks to Jossy Sayir for being the first to inform us about the 2010 IEEE Information Theory Paper Award presented to Erdal Arikan, our NEWCOM++ colleague and friend, from Bilkent University.
Erdal
is a member of NEWCOM++ (and previously of NEWCOM) and is currently
leading the WPR.4 - Iterative Receivers for Wireless Communications. All
NEWCOM++ researchers are joining the N++ Executive and Scientific
Boards in congratulating Erdal for this award!

NEWCOM++ is the acronym of a proposed Network of Excellence in Wireless COMmunications, submitted to Call 1 of the VII Framework Program under the Objective ICT-2007.1.1: The Network of the Future, mainly in its target direction “Ubiquitous network infrastructure and architectures”. After the successful completion of its first phase over the period of March 2004 - February 2007, the European Network of Excellence in Wireless Communications (NEWCOM) was reconducted by the European Commission within the framework of FP7 for a second phase of 3 years starting in January 2008. The second phase of this network, known as NEWCOM++, gathers researchers from 17 major European institutions (universities, private and public R&D organizations).
