DESCRIPTION:Prof. Shlomo Shamai The Viterbi Department of Electrical Engin
 eering\,\nTechnion-Israel Institute of Technology\n \nCloud based wireles
 s networks named also as Cloud Radio Access Networks (C-RANs) emerge as ap
 pealing architectures for next-generation wireless/cellular systems whereb
 y the processing/encoding/decoding is migrated from the local base-station
 s/radio units (RUs)\nto a control/central units (CU) in the "cloud". The n
 etwork operates via fronthaul digital links connecting the CU and the RUs 
 (operating as relays). The uplink and downlink are examined from a network
  information theoretic perspective\, with emphasis of simple oblivious pro
 cessing at the RUs\, which is attractive also from the practical point of 
 view.\nThe analytic approach\, applied to simple wireless/cellular models 
 illustrates the considerable performance gains associated with advanced\nn
 etwork information theoretically inspired techniques\, carrying also pract
 ical implications.\n\nAn outlook\, pointing out interesting theoretical di
 rections\, referring also to Fog radio access networks (F-RAN)\, concludes
  the presentation.\n------------------------------------------------------
