I like the aspect of Kais' definition that concerns itself with the increase of information decreases uncertainty. This goes well with entropy and chaos theory. But as his definition continues, I start to disagree with him. He completely disregards any potential disruption (noise) in the transformation of data to information. Furthermore, he states that "knowledge consists of information and therefore is not the same as information.", which I believe to not be a reasonable justification. A number can be part of another number, thus both the individual and the total can be the same.
