Using a simple model for defective memories, Professor Lapidoth shall demonstrate some of Shannon’s key theorems on Data Compression and Channel Coding, which are at the heart of Information Theory. More recent results, which were obtained with Ligong Wang and Yiming Yan, address coding for such memories in the presence of a rate-limited helper that is cognizant of both the data to be stored and the state of the memory cells.
