	Publications ( Moshe Sipper ) - http://www.moshesipper.com/papers/ Interesting papers on evolutionary computation and on computation in artificially evolved, non-uniform cellular automata.
	Information Theory Primer With an Appendix on Logarithms - http://www-lmmb.ncifcrf.gov/~toms/paper/primer/latex/index.html A introduction written for molecular biologists who are unfamiliar with information theory
	The Second Law of Thermodynamics - http://www.panspermia.com/seconlaw.htm A rather puzzling article by Brig Klyce about entropy with references to living systems from the point of view of thermodynamics and information theory.
	Does the Universe in Fact Contain Almost No Information? - http://space.mit.edu/home/tegmark/nihilo.html A controversial paper by Max Tegmark suggesting that the algorithmic information content of the universe as a whole is close to zero.
	Entropy and Information - http://www-ee.stanford.edu/~gray/it.pdf A 306 page online book in PDF format by Robert M. Gray of Stanford University.

	How Many Bytes in Human Memory - http://www.merkle.com/humanMemory.html A 1988 paper by Ralph C. Merkle.
	Algorithmic Information Theory - http://www.umcs.maine.edu/~chaitin/nv.html G. J. Chaitin's series of lectures at the Santa Fe Institute in April 1995.
	The Computational Notion of Life - http://www.nbi.dk/~emmeche/cePubl/compnolife.html Claus EMMECHE, 1994. This paper makes an interesting link between concepts of computation, cellular automata and the definition of the concept of information.
	A Mathematical Theory Of Communication - http://www.essrl.wustl.edu/~jao/itrg/shannon.pdf Shannon's highly influential 1948 paper.
	On the descriptive terminology of the information transfer between organisms - http://www.iscid.org/pcid/2002/1/2-3/koszteyn_descriptive.php Koszteyn and Lenartowicz consider the information transfer between organisms as a multi-layer reality consisting of at least two levels: the message and its production.

	The Quantum Theory of Ur-Objects as a Theory of Information - http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/9611048 Here the quantum theory of ur-objects proposed by C. F. von Weizsaecker is reviewed, and the philosophical consequences of its interpretation as an information theory are demonstrated by means of some important concepts of physics such as time, space, entropy, energy, and matter, which in ur theory appear to be directly connected with information as ''the'' fundamental substance.
	Gödel's Theorem and Information - http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/CDMTCS/chaitin/georgia.html A G.J.Chaitin proof of Gödel's Theorem using arguments having an algorithmic information theory flavor.
	Irreducible Complexity and Multiscale Reductionism - http://shum.cc.huji.ac.il/~sorin/pop.htm/cook/irred.htm System complexity seen from a different point of view.
	Quantum Algorithmic Information Theory - http://tph.tuwien.ac.at/~svozil/publ/qait.htm An agenda of quantum algorithmic information theory, ordered `top-down' by Karl Svozil : the quantum halting amplitude, followed by the quantum algorithmic information content, which in turn requires the theory of quantum computation.
