In today's practical communication networks such as the Internet, information delivery is accomplished through routing. In routing, network nodes simply store and forward data. Network coding is a generalization of routing in which nodes can generate output data by encoding (i.e., computing certain functions of) previously received input data. Thus, network coding allows information to be "mixed" at a node. As shown by the pioneering work of Ahlswede, Cai, Li, and Yeung in 2000, network coding can increase the network throughput beyond what was previously thought possible.

Looking forward, the synergistic development of theory and practice of network coding shall provide the driving force for continuing the advances in each side at an unprecedented pace, toward a fundamental understanding and practical developments of significant impact. The 2010 IEEE International Symposium on Network Coding (NetCod 2010) aims to provide a forum for an in-depth coverage of the research developments of network coding up to date. NetCod 2010 will continue the tradition established by the International Workshop on Network Coding since 2005, and focus on emerging topics, controversial ideas, and future research directions in the area of network coding research. Late-breaking research results from both theoretical and practical perspectives are encouraged. NetCod 2010 will be held in a setting that simulates lively discussions among participants.

The NetCod 2010 organizing committee would like to acknowledge the financial sponsorship from MITACS for the event.
