Virtually all electronic forms of communication today are indebted to Shannon's work. Landmark work that introduced the theory of communication to computing and the first use of the term 'bit' for binary digits. "While Turing and von Neumann recognized the application of mathematical logic to computer design, it was the 1948 paper of Shannon that set the stage for the recognition of the basic theory of information which could be processed by the machines the other pioneers developed . Thus, while aimed at explaining communication, Shannon's theory provided the bridge between communications and computers. 379-423, 623-656 , July, October, 1948. Figs., charts.
