The final article in a series of works on creation of ion‐molecular models of memory is dedicated
to the entropy factor. The authors examine the correlation between information and entropy. They
introduce an entropy equivalent in the specificity of memory (by I. Prigozhin). The memory system is considered
markedly nonlinear and non‐equilibrium. The article contains a general conclusion to the series of
works. The entropy factor is, from the position of bio‐physic‐chemistry, an important aspect of memory, as
a higher form of functioning of the organism, including human organism ‐ in the first place. It is possible to
allocate to factor the actual memory several types of entropy, instead of one integrated, as for example in the case of the classical thermodynamic processes. Moreover, the thermodynamic entropy, as a defining
static processes, virtually ignored in ion‐molecular memory model (Boltzmann entropy). Here more significant
is the consideration of the role of information Shannonʹs entropy. And another important point: to evaluate
the entropy of systems with non‐equilibrium processes, which undoubtedly applies to the memory, I.
Prigozhin proposed to use the sum of the elements of the correlation matrix, the diagonal members which
are set in accordance with probability, and extra diagonal ‐ correlations. The authors use it in the estimation
of entropic characteristics of ion‐molecular memory model. I.e. on the basis of proposals Prigozhin, the authors
introduce entropy equivalent, which corresponds to the provisions of non‐equilibrium thermodynamics
and the requirement for orientation changes in two of its components, that allows to estimate the partial
contributions of both types of entropy to the total entropy of memory.
