Information in Small Bits
註釋The two letters of the alphabet A (Alice) and B (Bob) become first acquainted with the Theory of Information and its inventor, Dr. Claude Shannon. They discover how all letters and numbers-anything really-can fit inside computers, smart phones, and fly off on the Internet, one small bit at a time!Information in Small Bits combines comics with narration to introduce an 8+ audience to basic notions of Information Theory-the theory that deals with how information is measured, processed, stored and compressed. These ideas form the mathematical foundation of today's communication, storage and information systems. Written and illustrated by two professors in Electrical Engineering, this book project was sponsored by the IEEE Information Theory Society to celebrate the centennial of the birth of Claude Shannon, the father of Information Theory.
