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

Manuscript submission information:<br>
-----<br>
Manuscripts should be submitted online at <a
class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.mdpi.com">www.mdpi.com</a>
by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are
registered, the submission form can be accessed here: <a

href="https://susy.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/?journal=entropy">https://susy.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/?journal=entropy</a>.
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.<br>
<br>
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 (<a
