The article presents information on the 2005 Communications Society and Information Theory Society Joint Paper Award, which is given annually to an outstanding paper that was published in any of the two societies' publications during the preceding year. This year the award was given to researchers Nihar Jindal, Sriram Vishwanath, and Andrea Goldsmith for their paper "On the Duality of Gaussian Multiple-Access and Broadcast Channels," which appeared in the 2004 issue of the journal "IEEE Transaction on Information Theory." Jindal has done his B.S. in electrical engineering and computer science from the University of California in Berkeley, in 1999. His research work is in the field of the applications of communication and information theory to wireless communication, with a particular focus on multiple-antenna multi-user channels, dynamic resource allocation, sensor and ad hoc networks. Vishwanath's is currently working as an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Texas in Austin. Goldsmith works as an assistant professor of electric engineering at Stanford University. She has done research in the field of wireless communication, information theory and adaptive resource allocation in wireless networks.
