Abstract
The concept of iterated decoding of concatenated codes has been developed. Successful applications of this concept include turbo-codes and soft-decoding of product codes. After stating the iterated decoding algorithm formally, we provide a conjecture on the convergence and the asymptotic optimality of this algorithm
