[Fis] Informatist Information Science

[Krassimir Markov]

Dear Xueshan,

Thank you for your very great work I have chance to see now.
Maybe it will be possible to read all your book “Information Science: Concept, System and Perspective” in the near future.

Unfortunately, now I have no possibilities to answer with the same coin – but in the future I will try to do this.

Now we are preparing the Jubilee 
GIT 2017, the XV-th International Conference on General Information Theory (GIT) ( http://www.ithea.org/conferences/ITA2017/2017git.htm ) .

It will be part of no less Jubilee
I T A   2 0 1 7,  XX-th Joint International Scientific Events on I N F O R M A T I C S ( http://www.ithea.org/conferences/itaf2017.htm ). 

In addition, I am working on the Workshop on General Information Theory, which will be organized in the frame of
ISSI 2017, XI-th International Summer School on Informatics (http://www.ithea.org/conferences/ITA2017/2017issi.htm).

Because of this, I shall point only one very important aspect:

Our understanding is just the opposite of those of Wheeler's“It from Bit”!
The GIT is based on proposition that “Information is from everything”or “Bit from It”!!!

What is important, too, is that all information theories have its place in the science and may be explained and understood on the basis of GIT.

This position we had fixed in the name or our International Journal “Information Theories and Applications”established in 1993 !  (http://www.foibg.com/ijita/)
The name ITHEA is abbreviation from “Information Theories and Applications”(http://www.ithea.org/index.html).
In 2002 we had established the Institute of Information Theories and Applications “ITHEA”  (http://www.ithea.org/institute/institute.html).
One more jubilee! 


Friendly greetings
Krassimir

Dear Joseph & Rafael, Dear All,

 

Artificial Intelligence age. I have the Google Translation translate a chapter (Chapter 13 - Does Everything Come from Information?) excerpted from my book, I hope this effort could play a little reference to Joseph and Rafael for your lasting interests in Chinese classics and the consideration of their relationship with Information Science, please enjoy it.

 

A machine translation version plus my minor corrections, full of mistakes, of course. References omitted.

 

 

Best wishes, 

 

Xueshan
