Opis

The present book provides the reader with a general perspective of an interdisciplinary field between statistical physics and information sciences/engineering. It is virtually the only book on the subject, except for a collection of papers published fourteen years ago. The field is expanding quite rapidly, and this self-contained presentation may be expected to acquire a wide audience in physics and engineering.

Recenzje

... very enjoyable to read and often opening the reader's eye to new possibilities. This is a perfect introduction to the field for students and researchers who want to study problems in information science, including the use of physics in information processing
