Abstract
The inventors of error-correcting codes were initially motivated by problems in communications engineering. But coding theory has since also influenced several other fields, including memory technology, theoretical computer science, game theory, portfolio theory, and symbolic manipulation. This talk will recall some forays into these subjects.--via viterbi.usc.edu

I wish I could be at this lecture in person today, but I’ll have to live with the live webcast.
