O relacionamento entre fontes de informação édefinido em termos de um espaço quase-métrico. Esta propriedade é utilizada para quantificar certos padrões funcionais em sistemas de informaçãocriados pelo homem, tais como a biblioteca. Além do mais, ê sugerido que esta característica espacial das fontes de informação pode ser útil para explicar certas propriedades funcionais do cérebro.
Abstract
The relationship between information sources is defined in terms of a quasi-metric space. This property is used to quantify certain functional patterns in such man made information systems as libraries. Moreover, it is suggested that this spatial characteristic of information sources may be useful in explaining certain functional properties of the brain.
