Zusammenfassung

Die Information Shannons wird auch als Entropie bezeichnet und gleicht so dem Entropiebegriff der Physik. Die Grundlagen der Informationstheorie, verwandte Ansätze sowie eine Diskussion zum Wesen der Information bilden die Schwerpunkte dieses Kapitels.

Behandelte Themen und Fragen:

  • Zusammenhang zwischen Entropie und Information

  • Informationstheorie von Claude E. Shannon

  • Alternativen zur und Grenzen der Informationstheorie

  • Hypothesen zum Wesen der Information in der Natur

  • Bedeutung, Energie und Evolution

  • Informationsmodelle
