Editor-in-Chief Shu-Kun Lin explains what Entropy is about:
| Quote | Entropy has been launched as a scientific journal to provide an advanced forum for the community of entropy and information researchers.
There are many types of entropy reported in the scientific literature [1]. The great diversity in the concept and definition may cause tremendous problems. My own humble suggestion is the following regarding the main two kinds of entropy: 1. Any information-theoretic entropy (Shannon's entropy [2], H) should be defined in a way that its relation with information is clear. 2. Any theories regarding thermodynamic entropy (classical entropy, S, or the entropy of Clausius, Gibbs and Boltzmann and Plank) should conform with the second law of thermodynamics. |
Teh community of entropy - I like the sound of it.
