A Mathematical Theory of Communication

Parts I & II By C.E. Shannon Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc.

With this paper, Claude Shannon provided the theoretical foundation for communication engineering. It describes how information can be manipulated using mathematical equations and broken down, into what he called “bits” so that it could be used in digital form. It provides the basis from which all modern communication stems, such as the Internet, Computers, and Smartphones.
