    Notes: Abstract The structural information content (Rashevsky, 1955; Trucco 1956a, b)I g (X) of a graphX is defined as the entropy of the finite probability scheme constructed from the orbits of its automorphism groupG(X). The behavior ofI g on various graph operations—complement, sum, join, cartesian product and composition, is examined. The principal result of the paper is the characterization of a class of graph product operations on whichI g is semi-additive. That is to say, conditions are found for binary operations o and ∇ defined on graphs and groups, respectively, which are sufficient to insure thatI g (X o Y)=I g (X)+I g (Y)−H XY , whereH XY is a certain conditional entropy defined relative to the orbits ofG(X o Y) andG(X) ∇G(Y).

    Notes: Abstract Shrinking resources and the increasing complexity of clinical decisions are stimulating research in knowledge-intensive computer applications for the delivery of social services. The expected benefits of knowledge-intensive applications such as expert systems include improvement in both the quality and the consistency of service delivery, augmentation of institutional memory, and reduced labour costs through greater reliance on paraprofessionals. This paper analyses the likely impacts of knowledge-intensive systems on social service organisations, drawing on trends in related service-delivery fields, and on known impacts of computer applications in organisations. A structural change may be anticipated: decision making and planning functions will shift increasingly from social service professionals to administrators.

    Notes: Abstract In a previous paper (Mowshowitz, 1968), a measureI g (X) of the structural information content of an (undirected) graphX was defined, and its properties explored. The class of graphs on whichI g is defined is here enlarged to included directed graphs (digraphs). Most of the properties ofI g observed in the undirected case are seen to hold for digraphs. The greater generality of digraphs allows for a construction which shows that there exists a digraph having information content equal to the entropy of an arbitrary partition of a given positive integer. The measureI g is also extended to a measure defined on infinite (undirected) graphs. The properties of this extension are discussed, and its applicability to the problem of measuring the complexity of algorithms is considered.

    Notes: Abstract The connection between the adjacency matrix and the automorphisms of a digraph is used to develop a method for studying the automorphism group and, thus, the information content (Mowshowitz 1968a, b) of a digraph. An algorithm is given for constructing digraphs with zero information content, and the properties of such digraphs are examined. Moreover, an algorithm for computing the automorphism group of a digraph is presented and is used to find conditions which insure that two digraphs have the same information content. This algorithm is further used to determine the information content of digraphs whose adjacency matrices have prescribed properties.

    Notes: Abstract The structural information contentI g (X) of a graphX was treated in detail in three previous papers (Mowshowitz 1968a, 1968b, 1968c). Those investigations ofI g point up the desirability of defining and examining other entropy-like measures on graphs. To this end the chromatic information contentI c (X) of a graphX is defined as the minimum entropy over all finite probability schemes constructed from chromatic decompositions having rank equal to the chromatic number ofX. Graph-theoretic results concerning chromatic number are used to establish basic properties ofI c on arbitrary graphs. Moreover, the behavior ofI c on certain special classes of graphs is examined. The peculiar structural characteristics of a graph on which the respective behaviors of the entropy-like measuresI c andI g depend are also discussed.
