Japan-Singapore Informatics Exchange Workshop 2024

Place: 
  National University of Singapore
  Room number will be announced later.

Date: 
  23/09/2024 – 27/09/2024

Registration Fee: 
 Free

This workshop provides participants with research exchange opportunities through informatics. The introductory lectures will cover three topics: coding theory, cryptography, and quantum information/coding theory. The participant is expected to be graduate students or active undergraduates with an interest in mathematical informatics. The introductory lectures will include exercises related to the topics. Participants will be divided into several groups to try the exercises. Each group will consist of participants from both Japan and Singapore. Once each group has compiled their answers, they will be asked to present their solutions.

Advanced Talks will be offered on the last day. The main speakers will be researchers and they present their cutting-edge research. Each talk including Q&A will be about 30 minutes, and there will be about 5 talks.

A welcome party, lunch and excursions will also be offered as opportunities for international exchange. Through these events, more than 33 hours of international exchange opportunities will be provided.
