Aims
Entropy, an International and
Interdisciplinary
Journal of Entropy and Information Studies, publishes reviews, regular
research papers and short communications. Our aim is to encourage
scientists to
publish as much as possible their theoretical and experimental details.
There is no restriction on the length of the papers. If there are
computation
and the experiment, the details must be provided so that the results
can
be reproduced. There are in addition three unique features:
- Manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will
be
particularly
welcomed.
- Comments on any related papers published in this journal and
other
journals
can be made public immediately in the
mailing list
and published as short letters in this journal.
- Electronic files regarding the full details of the calculation
and
experimental
procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, will be deposited
as supplementary material.
Subject Areas
- general aspects of entropy and information concepts as used in
statistical
mechanics, thermodynamics, etc.
- the second law of thermodynamics
- information theory
- system theory and cybernetics
- artificial intelligence, neural networks, complex systems,
man-machine
interfaces,
self-organization theories, systems therapy
- pattern recognition
- chaos, complexity, self-organization, symmetry breaking,
stability,
reversibility
and spontaneity
- quantitative relations of entropy (information loss) and other
concepts
(e.g., symmetry, similarity, orderliness, simplicity and complexity)
- molecular evolution, biological evolution and the evolution of
the
universe
- application of entropy and information studies in any natural and
social
sciences
Book Reviews
Authors and publishers are encouraged to send review copies of their
recent related books to the editor.
Received books will be listed first as "Books Received", then offered
to
the scholarly community for preparing reviews.
Announcement and Advertisement
Announcements regarding academic activities such as conferences are
published for free. Advertisement can be either published or placed on
