Efficiency, unused capacity and transmission power as indicators of the Triple Helix of university–industry–government relationships

作者：

Highlights：

• An information source composed with n random variables may be split into 2n events.

• Once the maximum entropy computed, the unused capacity and the efficiency of the source may follow.

• The transmission power is defined as the efficiency of the transmission between the source's variables.

• The transmission power indicates how strong the synergy or the control exerted within the source is.
