DESCRIPTION:[Ascribed from Wikipedia]\n\n[]Information theory is the mathem
 atical study of the quantification\, storage\, and communication of inform
 ation. The field was established and formalized by Claude Shannon in the 1
 940s\, though early contributions were made in the 1920s through the works
  of Harry Nyquist and Ralph Hartley. It is at the intersection of electron
 ic engineering\, mathematics\, statistics\, computer science\, neurobiolog
 y\, physics\, and electrical engineering\n\nThis is a 2 hour overview of t
 his subject - inspired by a similar effort done in past years called &quot;Intr
 oduction to Embedded Systems&quot; by the Computer Society chapter of SE Michig
 an\, aimed at students of all STEM disciplines but whose prime areas were 
 not embedded systems. The idea is to share and gain appreciation for the t
 opic.\n\nWhere: Webinar (Join link will be provided after registration)\nP
