A study on adaptable system model and its application to desktop publishing system

Abstract

In 1948 the term "information" sprang from the literature world, and was adopted in the logic world. Concurrently and by chance, C. E. Shannon constructed a historic quantitative information formula, "information entropy" [144], whiile N. Wiener proposed a new science, "Cybernetic" [167], based on control and communication. In addition, computers invented by J. von Neumann developed an engineering area of "information", and a highly information-oriented modern society was established. As a result, today, we have a variety of information mixed in confusion. Going back to the basic of information processing, we recognize the exsitence of the supreme information processing machine. Man is this machine. A study which makes the structure of man clear, will become important tool for advancing clinical medicine to maintain our health, and the physiology of life phenomena. ・・・Thesis (Ph.D. in Engineering)--University of Tsukuba, (A), no. 1395, 1995.3.2
