Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The special issue focuses on contributions based on Shannon's information concepts applied to problems in communications and networking.
When Shannon introduced his version of "entropy" and the related concept of "mutual information", he had problems in electrical communication in mind. Since then his theory has found a wide range of applications also outside the central field of telecommunications. The goal of this special issue is however to provide a modern view on problems in communications and networking, and the use of Shannon's notions to understand and characterize fundamental opportunities and limitations.
Prospective contributions should consider theory and problems motivated by the wide area of communications and networking. Shannon's original concepts of entropy and/or mutual information should be of central importance.

Submission
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Entropy is an international peer-reviewed Open Access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1200 CHF (Swiss Francs).
