DESCRIPTION:Information theory can characterize one-way\, non-interactive c
 ommunication\, where one source sends a message to one destination\, very 
 well. When the communication is interactive\, as in (1) channels with feed
 back\, or (2) two-way channels where two users exchange messages over a sh
 ared channel\, much less is understood. We outline\, in an interactive fas
 hion\, what is understood about interactive communications from an informa
 tion theoretic perspective\, and why they are so challenging to characteri
 ze. Many open problems and connections to related fields will be presented

 y\, non-interactive communication\, where one source sends a message to on
 e destination\, very well. When the communication is interactive\, as in (
 1) channels with feedback\, or (2) two-way channels where two users exchan
 ge messages over a shared channel\, much less is understood. We outline\, 
 in an interactive fashion\, what is understood about interactive communica
