Originally posted December 5 2008 Today I moved from the Processing IDE to Eclipse as an environment for the 3D demo development. Hopefully this will mean a bit leaner development with better support from the IDE. There should be no apparent difference for the user. I do this primarily because the processing IDE is nice...
Entropy is a measure of the uniformity of the distribution of energy. See below reflection on this term. Could this be valuable to the analysis of a enterprises information state? A measure like Information Entropy could suggest: - ”the measure of the uniformity of the distribution of information”. - ”measures the dispersal of information: how...

To be in the middle of thousands of actions from different information sources simultaneously could be wanted. Like being next to a cell while it divides. It gives some information you couldn’t figure out beforehand… Being inside a nova while it expands or collides with a galaxy. Could observe things not observable… Like being witness...
I just feel the need to repeat this. It encourages. “One significant difficulty with such problems is knowing, given a set of data, how to glean meaningful information from it. To most, the process is entirely opaque. Fields such as statistics, data mining, graphic design, and information visualization each offer components of the solution, but...
