Abstract• Universal source coding problem for

multiterminal coding system• Explicit constructions of universal codes

– Fixed-length & variable-length lossless codes

Background• Slepian-Wolf (1973):

– beginning of multiterminal source coding• Csiszar-Korner (1980):

– first investigated problem of universal coding for Slepian-Wolf coding system

– showed existence of universal codes

• Subsequent research focused on Slepian-Wolf coding system– Csiszar (1982), Ahlswede-Dueck (1982),

Oohama (1996), Uyematsu (2001)
