[[Information]] can take the form of images, sound, video or other multimedia. [[Bit]]s of information can be streamed via [[signal]]s. Its [[information processing|processing]] is the central notion of [[informatics]], the European view on [[computing]], which studies information processing algorithms independently of the type of information carrier - whether it is electrical, mechanical or biological. This field plays important role in [[information theory]], [[telecommunications]], [[information engineering (field)|information engineering]] and has applications in [[medical image computing]] and [[speech synthesis]], among others. ''What is the lower bound on the complexity of [[fast Fourier transform]] algorithms?'' is one of [[List of unsolved problems in computer science|unsolved problems in theoretical computer science]]. | |||
