Deadline for manuscript submissions:

Description:
-----
Information-theoretic concepts are becoming increasingly important in 
physics, both in applied and theoretical physics. Examples include using 
quantum-mechanical systems to perform computations and transmit 
information; the use of information-theoretic concepts to characterize 
gravitational phenomena, such as black holes; informational 
axiomatizations and interpretations of quantum theory; and many others.

The goal of this Special Issue is to provide an interdisciplinary 
snapshot of the foundational and philosophical research at the cutting 
edge of this important area of physics. We welcome submissions focused 
on topics such as (but not restricted to):

- Historical perspectives on the use of informational concepts in physics;
- Quantum and classical information;
- Quantum and classical computational resources;
- Informational interpretations and axiomatizations of physical theories;
- Informational approaches to spacetime phenomena;
- Informational characterizations of thermodynamical phenomena and the 
thermodynamics of information;
- Informational characterizations of open systems phenomena;
- General methodological and philosophical issues related to the physics 
of information.

Manuscript submission information:
-----
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering 
and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, the submission 
form can be accessed here: 
https://susy.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/?journal=entropy. 
Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that 
pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published 
continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed 
together on the special issue website. Research articles, review 
articles as well as short 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 thoroughly refereed through a 
single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant 
information for submission of manuscripts is available on the 
Instructions for Authors page 
(https://www.mdpi.com/journal/entropy/instructions). Entropy 
(https://www.mdpi.com/journal/entropy) is an international peer-reviewed 
open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page 
(https://www.mdpi.com/journal/entropy/instructions) before submitting a

(https://www.mdpi.com/about/apc/) for publication in this open access 
(https://www.mdpi.com/about/openaccess/) journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss 
Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. 
Authors may use MDPI's English editing service 
(https://www.mdpi.com/authors/english) prior to publication or during 
author revisions.
