Collection description
Information Theory was originally proposed by Claude Shannon in 1948 in the landmark paper entitled "A Mathematical Theory of Communication". In this paper the concept of entropy was adopted for the first time in a field other than thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. Since then, the interest in entropy has grown more and
more and the current literature now focuses mainly on the analysis of residual lifetime. However, in recent years the interest has 'changed direction'. New notions of entropy have been introduced and are used to describe the past lifetime and the inactivity time of a given system or of a component that is found not to be working at the current time. Moreover inferences about the history of a system may be of interest in real life situations. So, the past lifetime and the inactivity time can also be analysed in the context of the theory of coherent systems.
