This paper attempts to extend information-processing theory so that it can be meaningfully applied to MNCs. A specific multidimensional framework is developed that can be used to measure the ...

Among the largest university presses in the world, The MIT Press publishes over 200 new books each year along with 30 journals in the arts and humanities, economics, international affairs, history, ...

The identities or bounds that relate information measures (e.g., the entropy and mutual information) and estimation measures (e.g., the minimum means square error ...

Probabilistic measure of information. Introduction to compression algorithms including L-Z, MPEG, JPEG, and Huffman encoding. Determination of the information handling capacity of communication ...

The human brain can process 11 million bits of information every second. But our conscious minds can handle only 40 to 50 bits of information a second. So our brains sometimes take cognitive shortcuts ...

Using a widely known field of mathematics designed mainly to study how digital and other forms of information are measured, stored and shared, scientists say they have uncovered a likely key genetic ...

An interesting new study by researchers at the University of Portsmouth, UK, describes the use of a mathematical method to sequence genomes based on information theory. The method offers an ...

Integrated Information Theory (IIT) is a widely discussed—and, by some, strongly promoted —“mathematical theory of consciousness” developed over the past 10-20 years or so, mainly by neuroscientist ...

Claude Elwood Shannon, an American mathematician, electronic engineer, and cryptographer known as “the father of information theory,” was born on April 30, 1916, starting a life that would bring about ...
