Entropy This is considered to be the degree of disorder of a system. Gas particles have random motion have high entropy values. Liquids have much lower entropies and solids lower still. Solutions have a greater entropy than pure liquids as the particles in a solution are more separated and solvent molecules separate the solute particles. Solids If the number of moles of gas increases in a chemical reaction (as shown by the stoichiometry of the reaction) then the entropy also increases. dinitrogen tetroxide nitrogen dioxide N O (g) (g) In this example there are two moles of gas on the right hand side and only one mole of gas on the left hand side - the entropy increases going from left to right (reactants to products). Disorder can also arise by mixing different components. For instance a mixture of two different gases will have greater entropy than the sum of the entropies of the two gases alone. ***Entropy increases will be observed when any one or more of the following occur: A reaction breaks up a larger molecule into smaller molecular fragments A reaction occurs in which there is an increase in the moles of gas in the product.

35. Entropy Coding (EC) Publications, peoples and source code for entropy coding. http://www.data-compression.info/Algorithms/EC/

www.data-compression.info The Data Compression Resource on the Internet Entropy Coding (EC) The process of entropy coding (EC) can be split in two parts: modeling and coding. Modeling assigns probabilities to the symbols, and coding produces a bit sequence from these probabilities. As established in Shannon's source coding theorem, there is a relationship between the symbol probability and it's corresponding bit sequence. A symbol with probabilitiy p gets a bit sequence of length -log(p). In order to achieve a good compression rate, an exact propability estimation is needed. Since the model is responsible for the probability of each symbol, modeling is one the most important tasks in data compression. Entropy coding can be done with a coding scheme, which uses a discrete number of bits for each symbol, for example Huffman coding, or with a coding scheme, which uses a discrete number of bits for several symbols. In the last case we get arithmetoc coding, if the number of symbols is equal to the total number of symbols to encode. Publications Logo Title Description Modeling for Text Compression Although from 1988 this paper from Timothy Bell, Ian Witten and John Cleary is one of my favourites. It is easy to read, well structured and explains all important details.

Related subjects: Physics Ice melting - a classic example of entropy increasing described in 1862 by Rudolf Clausius as an increase in the disgregation of the molecules of the body of ice. Entropy articles Introduction History Classical Statistical In thermodynamics (a branch of physics entropy is a measure of the unavailability of a energy to do work It is a measure of the randomness of molecules in a system and is central to the second law of thermodynamics and the combined law of thermodynamics, which deal with physical processes and whether they occur spontaneously. Spontaneous changes, in isolated systems, occur with an increase in entropy. Spontaneous changes tend to smooth out differences in temperature pressure, density, and chemical potential that may exist in a system, and entropy is thus a measure of how far this smoothing-out process has progressed. The word "entropy" is derived from the Greek "a turning toward" ( "in" + "a turning"), and is symbolized by

This is a little result I found during my work for graduation in Mathematics. I’d like to know your opinion about it, so you can send me an e-mail to carla@x-planet.net You can also visit my new site: http://www.x-planet.net/ Thank you anyway. An application named sft Let P be the prime numbers set and let P i ) be the n -th prime, P (1) = 2. Let p be a prime consisting of n digits, we want to transform it in another n -digits prime. The process is similar to that used for circular primes and it will be very clear with an example: let p = 1997, now we shift p ’s digits one position left to obtain 997 u , where u is an unknown digit. We want 997 u to be a prime so u u In general we won’t obtain a unique result, in fact for example starting from 1187 we’ll have 1871, 1873, 1877 and 1879 which are all primes. On the other hand there are primes, such as 8713, for which none of the four possible numbers is prime. Let p be a prime consisting of four digits abcd, let’s consider the following set bcd bcd bcd bcd then we’ll erase the non prime elements from this set and we’ll call N p ) the resulting set.

39. Entropy In all of physics, there is perhaps no topic more underrated and misunderstood than entropy. The behavior of large collections of particles, http://mooni.fccj.org/~ethall/entropy/entropy.htm

Entropy by Dave Slaven (Dave Slaven teaches physics at Saginaw Valley State University in Michigan) In all of physics, there is perhaps no topic more underrated and misunderstood than entropy. The behavior of large collections of particles, such as the universe, a grain of sand, or a tuna salad sandwich, is dictated by two universal laws: one involving energy, the other involving entropy. And yet, while energy is described in great detail throughout any introductory physics textbook, entropy is relegated to about two or three pages, and is usually badly described. Well, no more! Here's the real story of physics. Here's what really drives the universe. Here's what your physics instructor won't tell you. Here's entropy !!! The answer is Entropy So what's the question? Only this: Why do things happen the way they do, and not in reverse? For example: When you drop an egg on the floor, it breaks. But dropping a broken egg on the floor doesn't cause it to become whole. A new deck of cards comes with all the cards in order. Shuffling them mixes up the cards. Now take a deck of cards that's mixed up and shuffle them. The cards do not come back to their original order.

Introduction Thomas Pynchon achieves an unusual synthesis of art and science, and develops the unique character of his ambitious, "post-modern" works with a renaissance conception of continuous knowledge. Engineering principals animate his fiction in literal explorations, and then escalate into larger thematic matter. The Crying of Lot 49 (1965) traces Entropy through the theoretical Maxwell's Demon device (the greatest historical challenge to the second law of thermodynamics), and also extends the property and Demon to metaphorically control and inform the journey of Oedipa Mass. Pynchon's reader travels an analogous odyssey to the protagonist, sorting information, flirting with chaos and circumnavigating truth. Entropy Entropy is a quantity that, in its two contexts, characterizes not only all form and life in the universe, but all signal, language, information and written material ever produced anywhere. There are two fields which define this concept: Thermodynamics is the science of the relations between heat and other forms of energy. It deals with the changes that occur in a system if the energy distribution is unbalanced, therefore it "can be regarded as governing the direction of all physical changes taking place in the universe. With time, the energy within a system will inevitably tend to become distributed in the most probable pattern, which consists of all the individual particles of the system engaging in random, disordered motion" (OED). Thermodynamic entropy is the measure of this disorganization in a system. Furthermore, this "most probable pattern" is actually a state of equal energy among particles, as collisions cause bodies to exchange heat. A closed system inevitably proceeds toward uniformity of energy.
