	IEEE Spectrum: Closing in on the perfect code (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Two French electrical engineers, Claude Berrou and Alain Glavieux, made a flabbergasting claim: they had invented a digital coding scheme that could provide virtually error-free communications at data rates and transmitting-power efficiencies well beyond what most experts thought possible.
		Berrou and Glavieux were right, and their error-correction coding scheme, which has since been dubbed turbo codes, has revolutionized error-correction coding.
		Berrou says their work is proof that it is not always necessary to know about theoretical limits to be able to reach them.

		New York, March 2, 2005 -- Claude Berrou, who with his late research partner, Alain Glavieux, invented turbo codes, thereby solving a data communications puzzle that had evaded researchers for 40 years, has been named the 2005 Fellow of the Marconi Society.
		For his ingenuity, persistence and generous collaborative spirit, the Marconi Society is pleased to recognize Claude Berrou with its 2005 Marconi Prize,” said John Jay Iselin, president of the Marconi Society.
		Professor Berrou will join a select cadre of 34 of the world’s most influential communications technology pioneers who since 1975 have been awarded the honor named for Guglielmo Marconi, 1909 recipient of the Nobel Prize for pioneering wireless transmissions.

	ISP Planet - Technology - The Marconi Foundation Celebrates Human Ingenuity
		On Friday, November 4, the venerable Marconi Foundation held a symposium and award ceremony, presenting a lifetime achievement award to Gordon Moore and a fellowship to Claude Berrou.
		Berrou and Glavieux found that if each processor was constantly exchanging data with all of the others, processing became more efficient.
		Since neither Glavieux nor Berrou were active in the field of signal processing—their discovery relied on much-ignored work in information theory—their result was initially dismissed and ignored, but eventually the pair won international recognition and their discovery vastly improved communication, especially in the most valuable, low bandwidth communications systems of all: satellites.
