• TITLE: Follow the Multitude—A Thermodynamic Approach

  AUTHORS: Oded Kafri

  KEYWORDS: Information Theory, Networks, Entropy

  JOURNAL NAME: Natural Science, Vol.6 No.7, April 25, 2014

  ABSTRACT: When a bit is added to a file, its entropy increases by one nat regardless of the length of the file or the value of the bit. However, when a node is added to a network, the entropy increase is a function of the ratio between the links and the nodes in the network. Therefore, the thermodynamic incentive for a node to join a highly linked network is higher than to join a poorly linked network.
