Abstract
Usually informatics is defined as computer and information science (Gorn 1983, p.121). It is concerned with symbolic expressions and their manipulations and hence also with the study, design and use of data structures and their transformation by mechanical means (Gorn 1983, pp.130–131). A similar concept of computers and communication sciences can be found in Kobayashi (1982).
