Abstract

The concept of information provokes discussion in many scientific realms, e.g. in physics, the relationship between information and entropy. Information has been associated by communication engineers with the freedom of choosing symbols to construct a message. To confuse matters further, Shannon used entropy as a metaphor in his analysis of statistical behaviour of symbols, but Stonier points out the possibility of a different relationship between information and entropy. The definition of information should ba analogous to the physical definition of energy, the capability of performing work, whereas the the capability of organizing systems corresponds to information. Moreover, it is necessary to distinguish the reality of information on its own from the meaning of information inside each context. One of the most striking contexts are biological systems which rely on sophisticated information processing mechanisms as yet not fully understood
