Abstract It is recognized throughout history that understanding the properties of resources and transforming these resources into products are regarded as the nucleus of science and technology. Understanding the properties of information and transforming the information into products will then play a crucial role in the development of science and technology in the information age. An attempt is thus made in this paper to present the results on the concepts of information and the fundamental features of information transforms. Here information theory will be given a much broader scope than the well-known Shannon theory and the knowledge theory will go beyond the existing knowledge engineering. It is discovered in the paper that the transformations from information to knowledge and further to intelligence constitute the core mechanism of intelligence formation and is hence named the mechanism approach to intelligence research. It is also discovered that the major approaches to artificial intelligence in history, the structuralism, functionalism and behaviorism, can harmoniously be unified within the framework of the mechanism approach and no longer be contradictory.
