摘要: In this paper first we present the notions of Boltzmann entropy and Shannon some from information theory. Also define new concepts such as Combinatorial Entropy Computable Information Content. second part, argue that mechanisms which determine two arrows time (the thermodynamic arrow evolution arrow) can be modeled better understood using these concepts.
