The 13th Canadian Workshop on Information Theory will take place in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from June 18 to June 21, 2013. Previously unpublished contributions from a broad range of topics in information theory and its applications are solicited, including (but not limited to) the following areas:

• Coded modulation
• Coding theory and practice
• Communication complexity
• Communication systems
• Cryptology and data security
• Data compression
• Detection and estimation
• Information theory and statistics
• Network coding
• Interactive information theory
• Pattern recognition and learning
• Quantum information processing
• Shannon theory
• Signal processing
• Cognitive radio
• Cooperative communication
• Multi-terminal information theory
• Information theory in biology

Manuscripts (both review and final versions) must be submitted through EDAS (http://edas.info) in standard IEEE two-column format. The expected length of manuscripts is 4 or 5 pages: authors are strongly encouraged to be concise, and manuscripts longer than 6 pages will not be accepted. Accepted papers will be presented orally at the workshop by the authors, and at least one author of each accepted paper is expected to attend the workshop. Published papers will appear in IEEE Xplore.

CWIT 2013 is technically cosponsored by the IEEE Information Theory Society. The workshop is open to all interested researchers. Please see the conference web page ( http://cwit.ca/2013/ ) for more information.
