Abstract
Inspired by control theory, we attempt to introduce action into a few classical Shannon-theoretic frameworks. This attempt gives rise to problems ranging from source coding with a limited budget of side information measurements, through coding for computer memories with a rewrite option, to communication with non-causal feedback. I will describe these problems, along with some solutions and open questions. Based on recent and ongoing work with Haim Permuter, Yossef Steinberg, and Sergio Verdu
