Biographie:
Abbas El Gamal is the Hitachi America Chaired Professor in the School of Engineering and the Chair of the Department of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, California. In the field of network information theory, he is best known for his seminal contributions to the relay, broadcast, and interference channels; multiple description coding; coding for noisy networks; and energy-efficient packet scheduling and throughput-delay tradeoffs in wireless networks. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and the winner of the 2012 Claude E. Shannon Award, the highest honor in the field of information theory.
